Update!
It's been a couple weeks since I've had the time to boil some eggs and I am compelled to report the results of my latest hard boiled egg techniques.
First I will post the lengthy, verbose version for those who, like me, absolutely love the sight and sound of our own words: ok, here...
After reading up on waterless cookware and instant pots, I have decided to surprise my little vampire bat with both.
I love buying her stuff that I want. :yesss:
(Sprints down the aisle to accept the oscar for most pedantic egg chef alive) :wee
I couldn't have done it without the help and support of my closest friend and partner, my dog Jed.
Oh, and my little Sea lamprey helped too... She makes sure I clean everything up and always wash my hands after...
And it looks like I need a whole lotta new pans! But I may skip the Instant Pot, simply because they are hip. Might make me appear cooler than I truly am.
Hmmmmm... Waterless cookware. I'm gonna fire up goggle and do me some interlearnin'.
Early results of 4 egg runs:
2 minutes boiling before letting stand 15 minutes = no appreciable difference in texture. Looks, feels and tastes the same as 1 minute.
3 minutes boiling = slightly firmer yolk...
Yes, I was wondering if perhaps a bit longer boil would be wise. The longer it boils the better as far as safe temps goes. Ima do a test boil or 9 and see how much texture etc is affected.
Not that our eggs are dirty, they aren't, at least not visibly. We have never had even a slight issue...
Good day, eh. I'm Bob Mackenzie and this is my brother Doug. "Good day, eh".
Nah seriously, names aren't important, but results are. So I reckoned on badgering you all (y'all?) about hard boiling an egg to perfection, which is also safe -- no?
