I love a good food hack, and since there are a million ways to cook eggs, I thought to myself, "I wish I had a collection solely of egg hacks." Being the change I want to see in the world, I searched the internet for 15 brilliant new egg hacks that'll definitely up my game in the kitchen.
1. "Use a whisk to easily remove hardboiled eggs."
2. "If you find that your eggs are sticking to your lightly oiled pan, instead of adding more oil, try waiting for your pan to cool down before trying to remove the eggs."
3. "Fun way to distinguish the hardboiled eggs."
7. "I use a mason jar lid ring to make my egg round for my breakfast sandwich! Totally works."
8. "Did you know that you can check if an egg is properly hardboiled by spinning it? That's because hard boiled eggs spin easily and raw eggs do not."
9. "Use a protein shaker for the fluffiest scrambled eggs and minimal cleanup."
10. "For the perfect scrambled eggs, whisk in a small dollop of sour cream (makes them creamy) and season the eggs with salt and pepper AFTER they’ve been cooked (prevents the eggs from turning grayish)."
11. Here's a simple explainer if you, like me, stress out when people ask how you want your eggs because all you know is "scrambled."
12. "To prevent a cracked egg from spilling out during boil, add a tablespoon of salt to the water."
"Normally, you wouldn't try to boil an egg with a visible crack, but sometimes, you'll discover a crack presenting itself/opening while the egg is warming up. Adding salt will greatly reduce or completely prevent the contents from spilling out and forming an ugly blob in the water."
