Separating Yolks from Whites in a Second--Super Cool Youtube Video of Unusual Method!

[speckledhen]

It's in Japanese, but no translation necessary. Two bowls and a plastic pop/water bottle are all that are used. So cool! I've never seen this. An egg customer neighbor sent this to me.

That was cool!

Oh, for goodness sakes. Crack the egg into a bowl, stick your fingers in and cup them under the yolk. Why doesn't anyone want to touch the food they're preparing? That has to be the biggest waste of time and effort I've ever seen...no wait, tossing the yolk back and forth in two halves of a shell is worse, and doesn't work as well. This is only the second worse way to do the job.

LOL! Couldn't agree more. I watched a friend struggling too mix meatloaf up with a spoon the other day. Told her watch this, I washed my hands thoroughly then plunged them in the bowl of ingredients and mixed it all up quick as a wink. Her watching daughters thought it was amazing. my friend was sure you could get food poisoning from just touching raw meat. I gave them all a few quick lessons on safe meat handling.

I do it through my fingers, but I thought the video was pretty cool.

Well, gee, Jeff, let's try and be even more negative, will ya?

Just thought it was pretty interesting and wanted to share. I'll skip that next time. Sheesh.

Guess what? I can separate the white from the yolk without sticking my hands in the egg or using a bottle. How about that for talent?

I think that's awesome! Probably handy if you need to separate a LOT of eggs....

Our original tools were what God gave us...I like to get "up close and personal" with my food. I'm of the old school too...crack the egg and dump it into my cupped fingers...white slides through, yolk stays in my hand. And meatloaf?? Hands are the ONLY way to go, LOL.

Sorry, didn't mean to come off negative, but this is a solution for a problem that doesn't exist.

So are most kitchen gadgets on the market today-ever watched infomercials? At least, this is a gadget that doesn't cost a thing. And yes, you were very negative. I never even heard of sticking your hands in the egg to separate the whites. I just use the shell. Easy peasy.
