J. Mark Flint #31954 LIFE Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 My wife uses the Instapot - no cracks, and for some reason the shells never stick to the egg, and peel easily. LL I do the same thing. Works great. On the stovetop a teaspoon of baking soda is a good way to make the egg shells come off cleanly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Wheeler Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 My wife uses the Instapot - no cracks, and for some reason the shells never stick to the egg, and peel easily. LL I have tried them in the instant pot, follow the directions, but they came out undercooked, and not as perfect as the ones that I just steam for 16 minutes.

Dutch Wheeler Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 16 minutes sounds like long enough to get the green sulfurous layer between yolk and white. No..., 6 quart pot, 1 inch of water, eggs go into a veggie steamer, bring water to a boil, steamer goes in the pot, cover and steam for 16 minutes. Remove from heat, run under cold water, and add ice to the water to stop the cooking process. Eggs come out done, firm, bright yellow yolks, and NO GREEN!

Dutch Wheeler Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Xtra large eggs, at least a dozen at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Xtra large eggs, at least a dozen at a time. That makes sense. Culinary schools that I know only use L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Xtra large eggs, at least a dozen at a time. I've done L for 18 minutes and no trace of green. The 18 wasn't intentional, I ended up having to take the dog out just before the timer went off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye Miles #13621 Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 This has somehow morphed into peeling the eggs, that's great but I wanted to know how to stop them from cracking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really can’t. There is always a chicken that slacks off and underperforms. In a perfect world she’d be sent to the butcher first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
