Re: [RBW] OMG! Egg misguidance from Rivendell
Boiled eggs, hell. I want to know how to flip an omelet without breaking it. Seriously. (Hardboiled; works for me: cold eggs in cold water, very low heat, walk away for at least 30 minutes but I've left them for an hour; come back, cool, peel with no problems.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] OMG! Egg misguidance from Rivendell
I learned how to do perfect hard cooked eggs and have never looked back. Boil water. Put eggs in steamer basket (not in the water) and steam with lid on for 12 minutes. You can leave out or refrigerate immediately it's up to you. The way to get the shells to peel off best is by using eggs that are older. The pH changes and that is the major issue in shells adhering to the egg. Soft cooking would probably just mean changing the time to something lower like 7 minutes of steaming. -Justin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] OMG! Egg misguidance from Rivendell
No no no! Like a high trail bike climbing at 4 mph, my egg boil method veers wildly from Will@Riv's advice in the email that came today. Never drop a cold egg into boiling water unless you want it to crack and bleed whites into the water. Now my method is modified by living at 5000 feet. But I place cold eggs in cold water then add heat. When boiling starts I time for 4 minutes for soft boiled eggs that look similar to the egg in the email. Seven minutes firms the yoke but not into the 'hard boiled' category. At the end of the 4-7 minutes, I come back into Riv agreement with an ice bath.

[RBW] OMG Bosco Handlebars Changed My Life!
I took Rizzo (my Betty Foy) to my LBS today to have Bosco handlebars put on. I wasn't sure if they'd make a difference in the pain I was feeling while riding, but I trust the folks here (and at Riv) who suggested that I give them a shot. I'm happy to report that all of the pain I was feeling in my wrists is gone, as is most of the pain in my knees. I have an appointment with a (new) physiotherapist in a week which includes a bike fitting, so there may be further adjustments to come, but I am ever so happy with these handlebars. I am riding upright (yay!) but my bike still feels sprightly and quick, and still takes hills like a champion. The smile on my face was almost as broad as the day I brought Rizzo home. I can't thank you folks enough for the suggestions and encouragement - I'm back in the saddle again! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
