What is having your eggs on the jersey side mean?
If I remember correctly, 'Jersey Side eggs' are fried sunny-side up, with a hot, soft yolk and the albumen (white part) is crunchy. The reason for the 'crunch' is due to frying 'pork roll' (Taylor Ham) in the pan FIRST -- this adds a distinct flavor to the eggs. Best served on a 'hard roll' with a slice of American cheese and a slice or two of fried pork roll - butter optional. Personally, I don't prefer my eggs crunchy. I cook mine with a lid over the pan and flip the egg. On a side note, glad to see you enjoy the music of Cab Calloway's - The Jumpin' Jive!
