Yes? Please tell me
You rock for kinda making me give out cooking tips
Ok, so I use an adorable 6 egg cooker where you just add the appropriate amount of water for how many eggs you're cooking (or a 1 or 2 egg omelette). Offhand I'm not sure how much water but it has to be hot.
When you put the eggs in the cooker, put them in so the bigger end is up.
Then you cover it, plug the wonder machine in, let it do it's thing, and it turns off when the water is all gone. Or beeps at you if it's all fancy.
Unplug it but let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
Then you do the cooling off thing. Running cold water over the eggs in a colander until they're more cool than warm or the old standby, letting them sit in cold water for a while (I don't have ice so it's just the water for me).
Then, when you're ready to peel the shell off (for some reason I LOVED to do this as a kid), I knock the egg (larger end) on my kitchen counter until it's cracked all around, roll it back and forth so more of the shell cracks (and little pieces of shell fall off and get all annoying trying to clean up), stand over that trash can and peel away by going for that top part first.
I'm getting less green around the yolk this way, too, but that didn't bother me. It's still delicious
Thank you!
omg i can't buy another single use gadget 😂0 -

Even better 😉1 -
hyyy,
I'm sorry that happened to you. She was wrong to treat you that way0 -
My body says move, but when I move, my body is either too stiff to move or too sore to move again.
Looking for soft & gentle exercise that doesn't involve weight bearing knee bends or hip leans.0 -
