He really has a thing for kosher salt, huh? I prefer coarse ground sea salt, works just as good here. Thanks Alton for the new cooking method though!

Simple, easy, and delicious fried eggs. I still prefer the flip method without a lid to make fried eggs, but when I am half awake in the morning this is the best way.
