Hi Dena, My husband and I have a talking cooking thermometer with a stainless steel probe that I think we got from ILA or Blind Mice Mart and it has a temperature range from below zero f. to (I think) 500 f. and you place it in the food to be checked. I am sure it can tell you the temperature

Now, I might think that they suggested stirring the macaroni while it is boiling occasionally, to keep the macaroni from sticking to the bottom of the pot. However, it is not necessary to stir the boiling eggs. -Original Message- From: Jessica Dail via Cookinginthedark

Your ears are the important thing. Boiling water makes noise. I've heard folks suggest timing it, but how water boils has a lot to do with atmospheric conditions as to when exactly it'll start boiling. So the best trick is to quiet everything else in the house and use your ears. Sent from my
