You can make a big batch of poached eggs at once by baking them in a muffin tin.
If you're intimidated by poaching eggs in water, you can make them in the oven. Add 1 tbsp water to each muffin cup, then crack one egg into each cup, and garnish them with herbs or spices. Bake them for 12 minutes at 350°F to achieve a poached eggs consistency (aka jiggly yolk and set whites). Read more here.

For perfect fried eggs, crack your eggs directly onto a hot skillet coated in canola oil.
Crack the egg directly on an already hot skillet and let it bubble and sizzle. Resist any urge to touch it for two minutes. After two minutes, use a spatula to remove the egg from the pan: The edges will be crispy, the whites will be set, and the yolk will be perfectly runny. Read more here.

To easily peel hard boiled eggs, cook them in boiling water with white wine vinegar.

Just place scrambled eggs, cheese, or any of your favorite veggies into a canning jar. Set your sous vide to 167°F and cook for around 45 minutes until no longer runny. Read more here.
