One, two ready
The egg boiler is a compact device that does not take up much space. Eggs are ready very quickly, so it doesn’t take much time to prepare breakfast, and the device is so simple and safe that it can be used even by children of primary school age.
The process of boiling eggs is simple – a tray with fresh eggs is placed in the container and water is poured over it using a special measuring cup. The amount of water depends on what kind of egg you want to boil – hard, soft or in an egg bag, as well as on how many eggs are boiled.
Before placing the egg in the tray, it must be pierced with a special needle that is part of the device. This should be done to avoid cracks in the shell that may occur due to the internal pressure of the reservoir. Then close the lid of the egg cooker, set the required mode and start cooking. The process takes a few minutes. When the eggs are ready, the device notifies you with a signal and turns itself off. All you have to do is remove the eggs, and they can be served immediately.
What to pay attention to?
* The egg cooker can have from 1 to 8 sections. For the most part, 3-4 are enough, but those who need an increased amount of egg whites can choose a device that can cook 4-8 eggs at the same time. If the capacity is 8 eggs, all compartments do not need to be filled during cooking.
* It should be noted that a device with 8 sections will consume more electricity, regardless of how many eggs are boiled in it.
* The body of the device can be made of plastic, stainless steel or heat-resistant glass.
Plastic egg cookers are lightweight and do not take up much space. If you choose such a device, it is better not to economize, because low-quality plastic is used in cheap devices, which smells bad or cracks for a long time, even if it is used carefully. Devices with a stainless steel body are more expensive because they are durable, light and elegant. On the other hand, egg boilers, whose body is made of heat-resistant glass, will tolerate a change in temperature, but are more fragile and can break more easily, so they must be handled with care.
Pay attention to auxiliary functions
When choosing an egg boiler, you should consider that the cheapest models simply boil eggs in water, and the only thing that the user can change is the degree of hardness of the eggs. In the most expensive models, you can cook food in steam. There are also interchangeable trays for making fried eggs or omelettes. There are also devices that combine the option of boiling eggs and a classic steam boiler. The more functions a device has, the more expensive it is.
FYI
When cooking eggs in an egg cooker, the shell does not crack, the white of the finished egg turns out to be softer, but the yolk will not be dry.
