TIPS & TRICKS

- Make a pinprick
Making a pinprick in the rounded end of the eggshell
will keep the egg from cracking

- Start the egg cooker
For a perfect result, start the timer immediately after having lowered the egg into boiling water

- End the egg cooker
When the alarm goes off, take the egg out of the pot and hold the egg under cold running water immediately. That way you end the cooking process right away and the egg will not lose its softness.

- The size of the egg
The diameter of the egg is a very important factor in how the egg is going to turn out. If you want absolutely perfect results, you can use a caliper to measure the egg. For example, there are size L eggs that are rather longish. In this case, it’s possible that you get a better result if you cook it using the instructions for size M eggs. Obviously, this information is for eggsperts only. Generally, you can trust the information on the label of the package


Have fun preparing your breakfast eggs and enjoy!!
