I think they are talking about cooking eggs in the steamer or rice cooker instead of completely immersed in water on the stovetop. We used to do that until the steamer died. It actually took longer to cook them, but the eggs were more likely to peel cleanly. It took longer because our gas stove heats water more quickly than the steamer did, but an old electric stove would probably be slower.

This tip sounded helpful. I must have missed the post about steaming the eggs. Can someone briefly describe the process? Thanks.

The tip about steaming eggs rather than boiling them had the following results over at Family And Friends kitchen. Immediately after steaming eggs were put into ice water. It took the cook 3 minutes to peel 36 eggs and all of them came out perfect with no shell left in the egg salad. Usually with boiling it takes the cook a half hour to peel all of those hard boiled eggs. That tip saved him lots of time and he told me he'll never boil an egg again. If you're going to make deviled eggs, turn each egg in the carton upsidedown and let them alone for a week. The yolks will be in the centers of the eggs when you steam them and that makes nicer deviled eggs. -- _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
