@Leila8Skittle I dint know that! cos i see everybody using it, including chefs and i thought that they know what they are doing!!! right now i am cooking eggs in these silicon "helmets". The reason i am using them is to avoid the extra calories of the burnt oil. I find them tasteful, but of course not as much as the traditional way. i am concerned with your comment. we are trying to eat more healthy, but at the end we will end up with cancer....
I actually like the way this is cooked. I have once done something similar with foil instead. Unlike boiling eggs, you won't get the hardiness, like rubber feel. If you boil the eggs without the shells, you allow moisture to get onto the eggs. And that will make the eggs much more watery and soft.
Boiled or not? I tend to think of "boiled" eggs as cooked in the shell, hard-boiled or soft-boiled. They can be cooked in boiling water or steam --- both very hot. Poached eggs are cooked out of their shells. You can get the same result with small stainless-steel dishes: butter them and then put an egg in each on, and cook in about a quarter inch or less of boiling water, covered. Three minutes.
i have poached eggs using vinegar and a "whirlpool," and several other "authentic" ways of doing it, but these poach pods are brilliant. this guy cooked them too long however.
@dmvella3, Yes, we did cook the eggs too long. I'm more of an omelet guy so consider me out of the loop in this conversation. You can cook the eggs for far less time than we did while making this product video. We did however get a very thorough and evenly cooked result from 6 minutes.
@dmvella3 we bought these...and every egg tastes like soap/plastic...doesn't matter if we thoroughly boil the pods before using them...the soap flavor (and smell) leaches...it is inedible. really dissapointed in a potentially really cool product
@Leila8Skittle silcere thanx! do you have any link with a relevant study to send me, so i can forward it to my friends?
