- Directions
1.
Put 3 or 4 tablespoons of bacon grease or similar fat into a frying-pan, set the pan over the fire, and heat until the grease begins to smoke.
2.
While the fat is heating, break as many eggs as will be needed into a bowl.
3.
Pour the eggs carefully into the hot fat, and with a spoon dip up the fat and pour it over the eggs, while allowing them to cook slowly from three to five minutes. Separate the eggs with a knife if they run together while cooking. If desired, the eggs may be turned with a pancake-turner and browned on the under side.
