Steaming eggs is a technique that allows you to cook eggs in a sauté pan while achieving a nice, firm egg white and runny yolk. The yolk is perfect for dipping toasted, whole grain bread. Enjoy!

Instructions
1. In a skillet, warm butter over medium heat. Once melted, crack eggs into skillet. Cook until the whites are firm.
2. To the side of the skillet, add the water. Cover and allow to steam over medium heat for 2 minutes. (This will produce medium-done eggs. You can steam longer for firmer yolks.)
