If I want that type of egg, we do it in butter and bacon grease. This way
the whites cook completely and the yolk is still liquid enough (mostly
liquid).

Mostly though I like 'soft scrambled' where it's all still runny, or soft
boiled in shell, where the white is barely set but it's nice and hot ;-)
