The Reason You Should Use Paprika To Season Fried Eggs

Sick of scrambled? Put off by poached? If you really want to elevate your eggs, look no further than your spice cabinet.

What other spices do you love to add to your eggs?

I wouldn’t mind trying it out, although my favorite method for fried eggs is salt and pepper cooked in bacon grease!

I liked to sprinkle black pepper on eggs 🍳🙂

I have been cooking a lot of eggs lately and my go to seasoning right now is sea salt, white pepper and Korean chili flakes cooked in the air fryer in muffin cups

I've been using Lawry's Seasoned Salt, which is mostly paprika, literally all my life! In fact growing up I wouldn't eat eggs anywhere but at home because Lawry's wasn't available.

Recently I tried the Paprika on my eggs, and I was so surprised to find I love this spice on them. I will never eat them any other way...or not until I find something I enjoy more...I do like trying new ideas, new dishes etc. I saw several other ideas in the comments below that I'm going to try! Thanks everyone! Have a wonderful weekend!
I continue to use salt & pepper as well.

Any good salsa or Pico de Gallo will kick it up a notch.

Just tried this with my old paprika it was a 10- going to get new smoked paprika- can’t wait thanks

Black pepper and adobo with chopped bell peppers. What a wonderful flavor to appreciate.

Asparagus tips fried in duck fat with eggs over easy. Black pepper
A little char is great on veggies with low sugar.
Like brussels sprouts.

Dill on eggs is a perfect flavor paring

I save the bacon fat and put in the fridge to use to fry my eggs.

A favorite of mine is to fry & mince ground sausage in a skillet and then add a can of tomato-salsa and heat it up. Then poach a couple eggs in it & jUST before done, serve the skillet (the dish will continue to cook) with buttered toast on the side. Yum!

Smoked paprika always. Any time paprika is called for, smoked is the way to go. No exceptions.

Paprika is a must on deviled eggs in our house! I like spicy turkish eggs for breakfast some times too

[annecollins]

I rather use black pepper on my eggs instead of paprika...Just my opinion.

[TiaCatR]

This sounds like a genius idea. I have some Penzey's spanish smoked paprika, gonna try this tomorrow morning. Thanks Mashed!

Lawry's Seasoned Salt or Lawry's Garlic Salt also work well with eggs.

I've been dusting my eggs with paprika forever. I also like a generous pinch of thyme in the oil or butter just before cracking the eggs into the skillet.
