Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave
I tried to poach two eggs in a dish. It worked quite well in that the eggs did not try to explode and kept their shapes in that the yolks stood up well. I used the egg setting but forgot to time the eggs as they cooked, getting distracted with getting the wrapper off the very cold butter and then cutting the butter stick with a cheese slicer--which, by the way, also works well. Except for being cooked firmer than I normally would cook them, the eggs turned out fine. However, some of the water overflowed out of the bowl onto the microwave's glass tray. I may use less water next time. I'll try the fried eggs next. I have always been successful with both scrambled eggs and omelets.

Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave
Yes, that's it. I usually give the egg a good tap on the counter or the side of my sink, then I hold it over the bowl with my fingers on top and my thumbs supporting the underside of the egg. I gently pull the two halves apart slowly and let the yoke slide into the bowl. this way I can tell that the yoke is out of the egg and I can usually tell if a shell piece tries to slide out. It sounds more complex than it is.

Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave
It seems to me most of you are suggesting pulling the egg shell apart by tugging the shell halves in opposite directions, as opposed to taking the egg in both hands and twisting the shell in opposite directions. Is this correct? This rookie cook needs to know! By the way, this is a wonderfully useful and helpful forum. Thanks, all, for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave
I strike the egg on its long side with a knife. A swift, short stroke. It will make enough of a crack for me to be able to pull the halves of the shell apart, over a bowl, and the egg will run into the bowl. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of diane.fann7--- via Cookinginthedark Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2020 10:06 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: diane.fa...@gmail.com Subject: Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave Hold the egg firmly In one hand.

Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave
I like to crack it on the edge of the counter or sink. Try to crack it in the middle of the egg with a sharp medium to soft but firm crack. Pull it apartwith your thumbs where you cracked it, and hold it over the bowl. If you do it next to the sink, you can just drop your shell in to where your garbage disposal is, or have another plate or bowl to drop the shell into. This does take practice. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of diane.fann7--- via Cookinginthedark Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2020 7:06 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: diane.fa...@gmail.com Subject: Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave Hold the egg firmly In one hand.

Re: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave
This is great. Eggs are so versatile. I like to add a little cooking spray in the dish before microwaving, especially if you are adding cheese. They tend to stick, and when washing the dish, it is very hard to clean. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org] On Behalf Of Marilyn Pennington via Cookinginthedark Sent: Thursday, March 26, 2020 8:47 AM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: m51penning...@gmail.com Subject: [CnD] How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave How To Cook An Egg In A Microwave Are you running out of time, but want an egg?
