I have a Nordickware microwave egg cooker which hard-boils up to 4 eggs, although I almost never fill all 4 compartments, 3 eggs is what I can fit comfortably.

I never thought of wrapping the dish tightly in plastic wrap. It would save with cleanup if the egg did explode a little bit, and they tend to do so when cooked on high especially. I need some protein today so will go to the kitchen and experiment with this. And I consider myself somewhat an expert with microwaving eggs. I am always so glad and excited when I learn new things.

Eggs are good for you and full of protein. Eggs are great for breakfast, in a salad, or on a sandwich. Make an egg fast and easy in the microwave. Fried egg: Break 1 egg into a microwave save bowl. Gently poke the yolk of the egg with a knife. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a plate, so the egg does not explode. Put in microwave for 2 to 3 minutes. Scrambled Egg: Crack 2 eggs in bowl and scrambled with fork. Cover bowl and place in microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Stir 1 or 2 times to make sure the eggs cooked thoroughly. Hard-Boiled Egg: Break 1 egg into bowl. Gently poke the yolk of egg with a knife. Cover the bowl and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until hard. Gently stir occasionally to make sure the egg is cooked throughout. The egg may not appear pretty, but once you cut it up finely over a salad, all that matters is the taste. Poached Egg: Pour 1/3 cup of water into bowl. Break 2 eggs into bowl. Poke the yolks with a knife. Cover bowl and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Let stand until whites are set and yolks are thick but not hard. Pour out the water and serve in bowl or lift egg out onto plate. Enjoy. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
