Egg in a Basket, East Ukrainian Village, Chicago
Growing up we always called this “Egg in a Basket” which I sometimes refer to as “Chicken in a Basket,” because .. you know.. same thing, right? Also, maybe sometimes I confuse the name with the name of a yummy cracker*. I’ve sometimes heard it referred to as “Rocky Mountain Toast.” I think what you call it must be regional. What do you call it?
Wikipedia lists these alternative names (most of them sound disgusting!):
- Spit in the Eye
- Egg in a Hole
- Egg With a Hole in the Middle
- Bullseye Eggs
- Toad in the Hole
- Eggy in the Basket
- Moonstruck Eggs
* Did you know that in Australia they make Vegemite in a Biskit?
