Got a steamer today

[bayyjayy]

Miss Lydia....I am so excited for you! I hope you enjoyed them. Did you notice ANY difference in how they turned out or peeled compared to boiling or hard cooking??

This is what I use:

The silver steamer part sits inside the pan above the water as it boils, steaming whatever you put in it...eggs, veggies, etc.

I have never heard of steaming eggs! Just like boiling?

We LOVE our steamer and use it daily. But never for eggs. I shall try though!

It's called a vegtable/rice steamer and it has instructions on how to steam eggs. also can use it for seafood. I was having problems with the shells sticking to the egg, and they just slide right off now. This one is a Proctor/Silex brand.

I had never heard of steaming eggs before either, so I had to try it out. Worked great in my bamboo steamer and they were some of the easiest eggs to peel, I could almost get the shell off as a single piece. Thanks for posting this Miss Lydia
