Boiled eggs? Get a pot, put eggs in it, fill it up with water till it just covers the eggs, boil for 10 minutes. What's so complicated?

poached eggs,, not hard boiled

Go to a cooking store or place where they sell all those things I think they sell something that removes the egg w/o breaking it.

GOODLUCK

ATV,, EGGS... there all good:cool:

wht r poached eggs?

Add a little bit of white vinegar to the water first, it will help keep the whites together. Fresher eggs hold their shape better too. Using a slotted spoon helps for removing the eggs.

dang... you beat me with the vinegar comment. But, the slotted spoon will help getting them out of the pan, a spatula is just like trying to grab a wet fish..

Make them in the microwave. Do a search on the internet for how, but it takes less than 1 minute.

I put 1 egg in a small glass that has a big bottom, like some juice glasses. Comes out perfect.

hell yea, thats what i do. haha, i jus go and spray some non-stick on the bottom of a coffee cup and crack an egg and put it in there and but it in the microwave for about a minute and its done.

Thanks for the tips and info! I'm gonna have to try some experimenting here lol.

I kinda got confused between poached eggs and hard boil eggs for some reason, but o well.

[stupid driver]

best be careful when putting eggs in the micro. you need to use plenty of liquid. The membrane on the yolk WILL explode in an egg, and the stuff is NOT easy to clean off of your microwave:D

That's pretty much what I did. But I think I cooked it for 20 seconds and then let it sit and cool for about 30 seconds. Then cooked it for like another 15-20 seconds. I believe letting it sit and cool keeps the egg from getting to hot and exploading like someone above mentioned.
