well, there are some people who probably can't peel eggs at all(say like an amputee who's missing a hand/arm or people with severe nerve damage that causes shaking) before this they wouldn't even be able to do eggs without the aid of someone else. Now they can!
TreClaire if one doesn't have the dexterity to peel an egg how in the hell would they have the dexterity to actually use this device? honestly lol. your heart is in the right place but c'mon 😂
they easily could though? I'm honestly not sure why you think it'd be so hard? Will it take a good bit of time, yeah sure but it's hardly impossible. All you really need to do is stand the base up and crack and egg into it, both of those things can easily be done one-handed or with a shaky hand. You can boil a pot of water with one hand...especially if your stove is close enough to your sink. You can break the air seal with just one hand and you can bang the thing on the counter till the egg pops out with one hand. The hardest part of this product for a one-handed/shakey handed person would be twisting and untwisting the lid but that's totally do-able. Go grab a bottle or something in your kitchen and try to open it with just one hand...it'll wobble some but you'll get there and if you did it enough you'd totally get to the point where it won't wobble at all. Now lets compare that to trying to peel an egg??? THAT'S impossible with one hand. The egg would roll around forever.
Sakura - because they know there is a sucker born every minute that will buy anything that's on some cheesy infomercial only to use it once and then have it clutter up their kitchen for 5 years. I don't mean Emmy, you know what I mean.
I watched this with interest because i got my 'eggies' pack from a second hand shop, there were no instruction. So when it failed, I thought I had done it wrong. I see now. They just aren't that great. Fab Review. Many Thanks ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Some mother in laws are just terrible gift givers, that's all. My mother got my brother's wife a closet clothes hanger because it had a pretty pattern on it, and a pack of plastic to go cups... My mother loves her to death. I said, mum... you're the worst gift giver on earth. :D
Sarah K My mother in law once gave me a bright pink scarf and a nail care kit. The only problem is that i had already a nail kit and i never wear pink hahaha
I use these to prepare eggs for each meal. About your comment about sociopaths, it made me very angry. People who say things like that deserve what ever happens to them. Like a slow death or maybe tied to RR tracks. Yes, time to think about what you said and be sorry as you wait for a train. The voice of SARGON coming from my wrist watch says to make you suffer. SARGON I swear I'll not rest until he's crying in pain. Yes SARGON, I'll not overcook the meat. You're sure he has excellent taste? Oh, I get it, taste. SARGON, you're a laugh a minute.
Emmy I cannot tell you how nice and comforting your videos are. I’ve been having such a hard stressful time lately and watching your videos has calmed me down and made me feel so much better when I feel like I’m about to burst. I know you hear this all the time, but thank you! You really are amazing
It makes me smile whenever you talk about your sons, they just seem like such lovely boys helping you in the kitchen, you're raising them to eat so many different things and just sound like a really well cultured family it's amazing! My mum was the same so I love to eat different foods, unfortunately my cousin has become a finicky eater because she just wasn't encouraged to find food fun
Follow the rule KISS, an egg comes in its own cooking container that is quite easy to remove. I could probably remove the shell quicker than it took to get the egg from the container.
I admit I bought one of those at Walmart a few years ago. It was harder than just boiling the eggs the regular way, plus the eggies were hard to wash properly. So extra things to wash and half the time I would have to re-scrub them. I got rid of them.
Omg! I used to watch your channel when you tried the food from different countries that people sent you! This channel is HUGE now! Really happy to see how popular you've become! :D
I once tried this, because I was really interested in this product. My mom added bacon bits to the Eggie and I thought it was delicious, and I think you should've tried it as well with this test. Alas, my mom didn't think the item was very convenient and believed it wasn't healthy to cook with plastic.
I tend to prefer an egg cooker because there is no washing up to do afterwards. just pop in your eggs pop in some water turn in on and wait for it to beep to let you know they are cooked.
We use an old Breville egg cooker in our house that uses very little water at all. It has a small sharp spike in the middle of the egg holder that you use to punch a tiny hole in the larger end of the egg, you then put them in the holder up to 7 with that hole facing up and the narrower end down. It uses just a few millimeters of water at the bottom. For hard boiled you fill the cup piece built into the center of the lid right up. Only two thirds full for soft boiled. Turn it on, stick the lid on and it lets out a loud buzz when the eggs are ready. We then put the eggs wile still hot into a bowl of cold water and then with the palms of our hands roll them on a wooden bread board with just enough pressure to crack the shell as we roll, then peel it off.
The first thing I want to say is I am so happy with the way you go about these products. I love how you LOOK at the instructions and follow them it gives a pretty unique experience that I want and is nearly impossible to find. I've seen so many videos where the guys full on TOSS the instructions away and then just try to 'figure it out themselves' and when they can't they just deem it as failed product. I also enjoy your unbiased nature when it comes to these certain products and how you really go through it and add in your own opinion in a way that is very intelligent and reasonable. I really like the way you do your reviews in comparison to the videos out there where they shove the product down your throat for marketing or other videos where the person's biased opinions blind them to giving the product a fair chance.
I hate myself for only appreciating your videos now. Where the hell am i the whole timmeee?!? Omg im so obsessed watching you. I am still fascinated and entertained watching you boil, peel, and eat hard boiled eggs hahahaha.
I'm going to start off by saying I never found peeling hard boiled eggs difficult. Recently someone convinced me to try hard boiled eggs in my pressure cooker because it makes them easy to peel. I was actually shocked at how easily the egg slipped out of the shell.
Thank you so much! You did an excellent job, professional and easy to follow and understand. I wish I had looked you up before buying two sets of Eggies!
They have silicone ones. Much nicer, and making a "scrambled" egg you can scarf in the car on the way to work is nice. Of course, the natural way you're boiling the egg in a chemical, surrounded by chemicals.
Hey, we have a set of these eggies someone gave us as a gift. We've never used them because it just seem simpler to hard boil a regular egg but I was super excited to see you give these a try.
I've had a box of these in my kitchen for easily over 3yrs & I've not ever opened it. hubby thought he was doing something sweet for me when he bought it. I still love him for trying
lufitueerb The point of it isn't for every member of society, but for people who might have tremors, arthritis, or anything limiting motion and doing small task.
Larkyn Embry But it uses so many more steps than just boiling an egg...and you have to screw and unscrew the container and get the egg out...not very good for people with limitations. just useless crap
Watched this video since I got a set from yard sale.. Did not work for me either. So after 60 + years of making eggs and not cooking them well, I tried Emma's way and WOW , I now get perfect eggs all the time. Thank you Emmy for opening my eyes or brain for great eggs.
So that the egg shells don't burst while boiling, I use a tack to make a tiny hole at one end of the egg. There's a pointier end and a blunter end, so poke the hole in the blunter end. That end has a small chamber between the shell and inner membrane. Poking a tiny hole here will give the egg a place to release the pressure inside that's created by the cooking. Be careful to poke only the hard shell and not break the inner membrane. You'll see tiny bubbles coming from the hole once it's cooking, and the shell won't bust cz is got that pressure release. After cooking, give it an ice water bath for a few minutes, drain the water, shake the pan to crack and loosen the shells, then peel under gently running water. If the egg is not fresh, this works even better because the air chamber gets bigger over time.
Giggles That's how I make mine, but I like my eggs cold so I just cool in the water then put them in the frig with a big X so my Mr will know these are hard boiled. 😉
We have an egg cooker 😂 it makes the perfect eggs unless you want "dippy" eggs. (a dippy egg is a English term, I don't know if it's used through all of Britain so I'm just gonna say English for now) it's basically a boiled egg with a runny yolk for dipping toast in. It fails at the dippy egg and you end up with a snotty egg of you don't leave it in its shell for a minute or two after cooking.
Reminds me of an old fashioned egg coddler, which is kind of the same principle where you crack an egg in a porcelain container, put the lid on then place it in boiling water. They're considered antiques now.
+a697ag Yeah, they probably do go through some kind of bleaching. It's strange that we Americans prefer white eggs so much. I mean there's no difference in flavor or anything between white and brown eggs.
The color of the egg depends on the breed of chicken. I usually buy brown eggs, but I with Easter around the corner I've found white eggs take dye better and make for more vibrantly colored eggs, so I got those instead.
Because they're laid by chickens who produce white eggs? I'm amazed how many people don't realize egg color is dependent on chicken breed and not bleaching (chickens can produce blue/green/pinkish eggs too)
I bought one of these sets on amazon because they showed you can make all sorts of flavored eggs by adding green onion or diced up peppers while it cooks, but I used it a few times and after a bit it does start to have a bit of a strange plastic aftertaste.
Its sad seeing people who don't normally see a lot of white eggs say they are bleached. Don't you notice that not every chicken lays the same egg? White chickens lay these white eggs, that's why they seem bleached. And please don't fight me about me, because I learned enough from doing my own research and you might just benefit yourself by doing your own research on farm animals.
Kathy Niebylski people are so far removed from their food source. Like I have over a dozen chicken breeds and have eggs ranging from pure white to dark chocolate, and everything in between (even blue and green eggs)
Kathy Niebylski Sorry Kathy, your research is wrong. The color of the egg is not related to the color of the feathers, just the breed. White Plymouth Rocks lay brown eggs. White Leghorn lays white. Other colors of Plymouth Rocks also lay brown. There are Brown Leghorns, they lay white. Araucanas come in many colors and lay blue and green eggs. Americanas, also in many colors, lay blue and green. Orpingtons, again, many colors, including white, lay brown eggs.
Thanks for doing this video because I don't have any patience for peeling hard boiled eggs. Although I love deviled eggs with smoky apple vinegar. But I actually wanted to try this. So thanks for saving my money on this. I guess I should get better on peeling by hands instead.
Donna G you're too kind! thankyou Donna! my son was also a week late, I'm feeling a bit cheated this time, all I've heard is "you go earlier with your second!"
Sarah Archer I have 3 of my own. A son thats 29, and 2 daughters age 17 and 18. My first was 22 hrs and a C section. My girls were each exactly 12 hrs and natural delivery. All 3 were a week overdue. My girls were definitely a quicker an easier delivery. Even after all these years I still remember how precious yet difficult pregnancy can be. I was so grateful for words of encouragement during those times. It helped me to know that others could understand my mixed emotions and "aches and pains" that went along with it. Now its my pleasure to pass along that same support to another Mommy to be.😀 I will continue to extend my thoughts and prayers to you for a speedy and healthy delivery. Take care and hang in there.😘
Guys you gotta remember that all these "lazy people" inventions that are as seen on tv are usually made with disabled people in mind to make their lives easier. like for the eggie it would be for people who have a hard time holding smaller more delicate objects like an egg or have not so good motor skills and can't peel an egg. don't be rude guys.
Thank you, yes this is the exact reason I bought one, the one I got from Wal Mart is a little different than the one Emmy is showing. I really like the one I have, and it is easier for me, as I can no longer hold small objects and peeling eggs is impossible for me.
Usually a good point but this particular device is still the size of an egg and you still have to assemble and disassemble as well as coat and clean this small object! Does not actually make it easier in any respect.
Yes I was considering buying these because it looked so easy on the TV. Glad I saw your video. What I do now is boil then a dozen at a time then cool them down in ice water. After they are cooled but not cold I peel all at the same time and keep them in the fridge for the week. I usually have two eggs in the morning at Wk. I find it easier to peel after they cool and not stored in the fridge then peel.
lol, what a dumb contraption! All of that fuss is way harder than just properly boiling an egg. It's like... here's five extra steps, have fun. And a plastic aftertaste.
Emmy, Your instructions say 15 to 17 minutes. But, like you, I don’t like cooking in plastic. I’ll still boil them in the shell. PS. My husband & I both enjoy your tutorials. You make it fun & make us smile! Keep up the good work!!
FYI- the fresher the egg, the easier it is to peel. If you cook an egg perfectly and it's still impossible to peel, it's probably many days older than the eggs Emmy has from her chickens. Just thought I'd let people know it's not just about the cooking method. ☺️
When hard-cooking eggs, ignore conventional wisdom and go with the freshest eggs you can find. (Cook's Illustrated) "In general, older eggs are easier to peel, so for hard boiled eggs an egg a few weeks old is better," David Mogford from the Australian Egg Corporation. Do what Emmy does. Room temp eggs, boiling water then add eggs, cook to your desired stage, (8 min. is mine like Emmy I like the yolk creamy), cold water until completely cool. Old eggs or fresh will peel easily.
poke a tiny hole in the bottom of the egg before boiling. makes it easy to shell them and doesn't leak out due to air pressure/vs water pressure. When you do the cold water rinse the cold water shoots up between the hot shell and the membrane and helps it seperate.
although not stated specifically, I feel like this product might have been designed for people who lack the fine motor skills needed to peel an egg. maybe a disabled person would benefit more from it?
I can't remember where I read it but a lot of 'As Seen on TV' products that seem silly just like this one have been created with disabled people in mind but the companies need to sell more to make money so they also market it to the general public too.
I have no fingernails so it's hard for me to peels eggs, but I would never buy this thing. But I'm sure there is a good reason for this (as someone said earlier, this could be for people who lack motor skills or have little to no control over their hands).
listen my guy, when you see these kinds of products you need to not think about it in terms of you...a fully able bodied person. Whenever you see one of these "lazy" products stop and ask yourself "Would this make my old, frail and tired grandmas life easier?"...consider all the people who aren't as lucky to be able bodied like you. Think about people who shake, have nerve damage or are amputees. Not everything is for you. Some of these "lazy" products can genuinely help people.
Another great video! The easiest way to peal an egg is to slide the dome of a spoon between the egg and the shell, run it around, and the egg pops right out. Takes less than 10 seconds!
Well, I watched a few videos on the eggies, I found yours to be the best, not just because your soo cute..lol, but decided to just boil them in the shell, they came out perfect!..for the first time!..everyone seems to have their own process, I dont know how many dozens got ruined, thanks for posting, your a real egg saver!..lol
If only eggs had some kind of natural hard coating that held in the liquid to make it easy to boil!
dogs!!!!! lol i agree, this so called invention is so stupid to bear
dogs!!!!! lol So true! What is the point of that??
dogs!!!!! Bahahaha ha ❤️🐣🍻
AccusingEyes92 Yeah, because it would be so easy for them to use this item... No, really, this thing is useless.
AccusingEyes92 dude I wasn't even making fun of the thing, I never said it was bad or not unuseful lmao, I understand it can help some people
At least you can use those plastic shells to make mini-raindrop cakes.
Gabriela Saraiva also hard boiled scrambled eggs like she showed
Yesssss
MY favorite part of this video is the background music during the struggle to liberate the egg from its plastic prison.
I love the music in her videos - always seems to fit what is going on
zoicon5 I
ferociousgumby so right ✅
I'm curious why would people invent a device that makes it harder to do stuff? :/
SakuraiKunLikes maybe their intentions were in the right place...?
well, there are some people who probably can't peel eggs at all(say like an amputee who's missing a hand/arm or people with severe nerve damage that causes shaking) before this they wouldn't even be able to do eggs without the aid of someone else. Now they can!
TreClaire if one doesn't have the dexterity to peel an egg how in the hell would they have the dexterity to actually use this device? honestly lol. your heart is in the right place but c'mon 😂
they easily could though? I'm honestly not sure why you think it'd be so hard? Will it take a good bit of time, yeah sure but it's hardly impossible.
All you really need to do is stand the base up and crack and egg into it, both of those things can easily be done one-handed or with a shaky hand. You can boil a pot of water with one hand...especially if your stove is close enough to your sink. You can break the air seal with just one hand and you can bang the thing on the counter till the egg pops out with one hand. The hardest part of this product for a one-handed/shakey handed person would be twisting and untwisting the lid but that's totally do-able. Go grab a bottle or something in your kitchen and try to open it with just one hand...it'll wobble some but you'll get there and if you did it enough you'd totally get to the point where it won't wobble at all.
Now lets compare that to trying to peel an egg??? THAT'S impossible with one hand. The egg would roll around forever.
Sakura - because they know there is a sucker born every minute that will buy anything that's on some cheesy infomercial only to use it once and then have it clutter up their kitchen for 5 years. I don't mean Emmy, you know what I mean.
I can imagine using eggies for seasoning hard boiled eggs
I watched this with interest because i got my 'eggies' pack from a second hand shop, there were no instruction. So when it failed, I thought I had done it wrong.
I see now. They just aren't that great.
Fab Review. Many Thanks ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My mother in law got these for me. Im now convinced she hates me.

Sarah K Unrelated, but I'm a little bothered that I found another Sarah K on here.
What kind of a sociopath would do this everyday before breakfast.
I use these to prepare eggs for each meal. About your comment about sociopaths, it made me very angry. People who say things like that deserve what ever happens to them.

And this is easier than an egg in a shell how?
Katriya wouldn't it be harder though since you have to assemble the eggie???
I did and like I said or maybe should have said who saw this as easy and decided to make this.
Follow the rule KISS, an egg comes in its own cooking container that is quite easy to remove. I could probably remove the shell quicker than it took to get the egg from the container.
People with arthritis or Parkinson's wouldn't be able to get the egg into the plastic case.
by not having to peel the egg after... which can be problematic at times
I admit I bought one of those at Walmart a few years ago. It was harder than just boiling the eggs the regular way, plus the eggies were hard to wash properly. So extra things to wash and half the time I would have to re-scrub them. I got rid of them.
I would put them on a string of lights to use as miniature Chinese lanterns.
It's like the Rube Goldberg of egg cooking. Boiling eggs is literally one of the simplest most basic kitchen related tasks ever lol
Certainly not an Eggcelent product.
Hahahah
Nor eggseptional.
I love how you show every step. It really makes for an honest review!
Why the heck did I just get a whiff of boiled eggs while watching this! hahaha plus home alone in my room. Ghost EGGS !
Either synesthesia or you farted
Maybe you farted
Am I the only one who likes boiled eggs on the softer side?
Yooo, love soft boiled eggs
thaguf I like hard boiled
I like hard boiled to but prefer soft.
thaguf soft boiled eggs are where it's at.
Soft boiled eggs are the best!!!
i love you emmy, i have been watching for... maybe three years now? the quality of your videos has improved a lot, and you are still the lovable emmy.

Cool demo. E. What a goofy device and great fun to watch you try to pound out the finished egg! You're the best,
Im sure all the chemicals leeching into the egg really enhance the flavour

Of course, the natural way you're boiling the egg in a chemical, surrounded by chemicals.

This might be a good tool for me since I cant touch eggshells without cringing because of my sensory issues lol

Mebbe she is. Her kids could be two or three. Remember, they're (part?) Asian. Valedictorians in the making.
Yeah she is beautiful for sure
I wasn't paying attention either
Asian girls don't age bro
She’s in her 40s I think. I thought she was a college kid too.
Man! This makes me so jealous of how easy you made peeling an egg look
I've had a box of these in my kitchen for easily over 3yrs & I've not ever opened it. hubby thought he was doing something sweet for me when he bought it. I still love him for trying
There is something strangely satisfying about peeling hard boiled eggs.
there's literally no point for that product lmao wtf
is it that hard to peel an egg?
lufitueerb The point of it isn't for every member of society, but for people who might have tremors, arthritis, or anything limiting motion and doing small task.
Larkyn Embry oh that actually makes sense lol
Larkyn Embry But it uses so many more steps than just boiling an egg...and you have to screw and unscrew the container and get the egg out...not very good for people with limitations. just useless crap
They make sense if you have farm fresh eggs. They're impossible to peel. Store bought eggs are minimum 3 months old are are easy to peel when boiled.
Your videos are so much fun!
Thanks!

Love your hard times and gadget review vids
why is your voice so soothing?
i was shocked when when she said she had a son she looks so young
i make no sense

VERSXCE Kind of but a bit runnier. You could try and eat it like a boiled egg but It'd be very messy.
Like a runny egg?lol
Cece Cheung boiled eggs with the runny yolk are what we call so boiled.
Gadgets usually should make something EASIER, not HARDER! Nobody needs this thing...

In the time it takes to assemble the eggy I could have already made a hard boiled egg
pre-seasoned boils eggs
Reminds me of an old fashioned egg coddler, which is kind of the same principle where you crack an egg in a porcelain container, put the lid on then place it in boiling water. They're considered antiques now.
My grandma got us one of these. The most useful part was the egg seperator in it and it's the only thing I still use from the box.
Why are American eggs so white?!
Sonya Kate bleach
+a697ag Yeah, they probably do go through some kind of bleaching. It's strange that we Americans prefer white eggs so much. I mean there's no difference in flavor or anything between white and brown eggs.
The color of the egg depends on the breed of chicken. I usually buy brown eggs, but I with Easter around the corner I've found white eggs take dye better and make for more vibrantly colored eggs, so I got those instead.
Because they're laid by chickens who produce white eggs? I'm amazed how many people don't realize egg color is dependent on chicken breed and not bleaching (chickens can produce blue/green/pinkish eggs too)
+Deku Kitty No, bleach would ruin the shell. Different chickens produce different eggs.
The only situation where I could see eggies being useful is for people who have medical disorders that make things like peeling eggs difficult.
I was going to just watch your video and not like or comment but then I realized I appreciate your videos and should let you know!
I bought one of these sets on amazon because they showed you can make all sorts of flavored eggs by adding green onion or diced up peppers while it cooks, but I used it a few times and after a bit it does start to have a bit of a strange plastic aftertaste.
It might be decent for someone who doesn't eat the yolk though? I know my grandpa won't at all! :p
Its sad seeing people who don't normally see a lot of white eggs say they are bleached. Don't you notice that not every chicken lays the same egg? White chickens lay these white eggs, that's why they seem bleached. And please don't fight me about me, because I learned enough from doing my own research and you might just benefit yourself by doing your own research on farm animals.
Lol true 😂
Kathy Niebylski people are so far removed from their food source. Like I have over a dozen chicken breeds and have eggs ranging from pure white to dark chocolate, and everything in between (even blue and green eggs)
Kathy Niebylski Sorry Kathy, your research is wrong. The color of the egg is not related to the color of the feathers, just the breed. White Plymouth Rocks lay brown eggs. White Leghorn lays white. Other colors of Plymouth Rocks also lay brown. There are Brown Leghorns, they lay white. Araucanas come in many colors and lay blue and green eggs. Americanas, also in many colors, lay blue and green. Orpingtons, again, many colors, including white, lay brown eggs.
jbeargrr Agreed. I have a mixture of chickens (not sure what breeds) that are white, brown, barred (striped) and they all lay perfectly white eggs.
Kathy Niebylski The darkness of colouration of a chickens earlobes and gizzard are an indicator of the darkness of an egg.
Thanks for doing this video because I don't have any patience for peeling hard boiled eggs. Although I love deviled eggs with smoky apple vinegar. But I actually wanted to try this. So thanks for saving my money on this. I guess I should get better on peeling by hands instead.
I didn't know about the cold water trick. And a how to prevent the green. that's so cool I'm going to do it every single time now thank you
still awake. overdue now.
I could totally eat some eggs.
Nearly there!
Sarah Archer Im still thinking about you! Hang in there. Any day now.😍😀
Donna G you're too kind! thankyou Donna! my son was also a week late, I'm feeling a bit cheated this time, all I've heard is "you go earlier with your second!"
Sarah Archer I have 3 of my own. A son thats 29, and 2 daughters age 17 and 18. My first was 22 hrs and a C section. My girls were each exactly 12 hrs and natural delivery. All 3 were a week overdue. My girls were definitely a quicker an easier delivery. Even after all these years I still remember how precious yet difficult pregnancy can be. I was so grateful for words of encouragement during those times. It helped me to know that others could understand my mixed emotions and "aches and pains" that went along with it. Now its my pleasure to pass along that same support to another Mommy to be.😀 I will continue to extend my thoughts and prayers to you for a speedy and healthy delivery. Take care and hang in there.😘
Guys you gotta remember that all these "lazy people" inventions that are as seen on tv are usually made with disabled people in mind to make their lives easier. like for the eggie it would be for people who have a hard time holding smaller more delicate objects like an egg or have not so good motor skills and can't peel an egg. don't be rude guys.
I can see your reasoning on this. It can be a bit hard just to peel the shell off the cooked egg.
Thank you, yes this is the exact reason I bought one, the one I got from Wal Mart is a little different than the one Emmy is showing.
I really like the one I have, and it is easier for me, as I can no longer hold small objects and peeling eggs is impossible for me.

T Holmes but cracking an egg is easier?
Usually a good point but this particular device is still the size of an egg and you still have to assemble and disassemble as well as coat and clean this small object! Does not actually make it easier in any respect.
recieved these as a gift, they work great for sprouting avocado seeds if you invert the large ring and omit that little top part.
I didn't know what to expect from this video cause its my first time seeing you, but youre really adorable
Tori Kat Welcome to the channel! Emmy's awesome.
You look like Amy Wong from Futurama
hiya Emmy ❤
Hiya!
emmymadeinjapan Emmy what happened to your arm?!
Bless people who make videos like this so the rest of us can save money when we get curious...
Yes I was considering buying these because it looked so easy on the TV. Glad I saw your video. What I do now is boil then a dozen at a time then cool them down in ice water. After they are cooled but not cold I peel all at the same time and keep them in the fridge for the week. I usually have two eggs in the morning at Wk. I find it easier to peel after they cool and not stored in the fridge then peel.
lol, what a dumb contraption! All of that fuss is way harder than just properly boiling an egg. It's like... here's five extra steps, have fun. And a plastic aftertaste.
HI EMMY
Hi!
emmymadeinjapan Lol isn't it just easier to boil an egg the regular way? 😂
I love this channel!
Emmy, this was too cute! thank you for sharing; think I'll be sticking to the "traditional" method!!
Maybe you were supposed to cover the eggies while boiling? Maybe that's why they took so long?
No, the directions specified that the Eggies were suppose to float.
they can float with the lid closed too Emm
I meant cover the pot with a lid
Person It doesn't say to do that in the instructions
Like if Emmy should do a meet and greet!
Intersting video Emmy. I discovered this year that I am able to make hard boiled eggs in my pressure cooker in 6 minutes flat. Can't beat that! ;)
Emmy, Your instructions say 15 to 17 minutes. But, like you, I don’t like cooking in plastic. I’ll still boil them in the shell. PS. My husband & I both enjoy your tutorials. You make it fun & make us smile! Keep up the good work!!
looks like a period cup
BadActingWYIM seems reasonable .. I mean what is an egg? 😉
Anatomyyy C. u weird weird
I can't unthink this now 😮🤔😞
@@g0i2023 Me too!😖 LOL! 🤣
FYI- the fresher the egg, the easier it is to peel. If you cook an egg perfectly and it's still impossible to peel, it's probably many days older than the eggs Emmy has from her chickens. Just thought I'd let people know it's not just about the cooking method. ☺️
When hard-cooking eggs, ignore conventional wisdom and go with the freshest eggs you can find. (Cook's Illustrated)
"In general, older eggs are easier to peel, so for hard boiled eggs an egg a few weeks old is better," David Mogford from the Australian Egg Corporation.
Do what Emmy does. Room temp eggs, boiling water then add eggs, cook to your desired stage, (8 min. is mine like Emmy I like the yolk creamy), cold water until completely cool. Old eggs or fresh will peel easily.
The OPPOSITE is the case: Fresh eggs are harder to peel, older ones easier!
poke a tiny hole in the bottom of the egg before boiling. makes it easy to shell them and doesn't leak out due to air pressure/vs water pressure. When you do the cold water rinse the cold water shoots up between the hot shell and the membrane and helps it seperate.
my first video,i already love her and subscribed
Hello random person!
I hope you have a great day!!
Like and spread the love!!
Are pepole so lazy/incopetent they have a hard time peeling an egg?, its easy, just be gentle and patient
and TBH the "eggie" makes it take longuer and look uglier....
although not stated specifically, I feel like this product might have been designed for people who lack the fine motor skills needed to peel an egg. maybe a disabled person would benefit more from it?
I can't remember where I read it but a lot of 'As Seen on TV' products that seem silly just like this one have been created with disabled people in mind but the companies need to sell more to make money so they also market it to the general public too.
I have no fingernails so it's hard for me to peels eggs, but I would never buy this thing. But I'm sure there is a good reason for this (as someone said earlier, this could be for people who lack motor skills or have little to no control over their hands).
listen my guy, when you see these kinds of products you need to not think about it in terms of you...a fully able bodied person. Whenever you see one of these "lazy" products stop and ask yourself "Would this make my old, frail and tired grandmas life easier?"...consider all the people who aren't as lucky to be able bodied like you. Think about people who shake, have nerve damage or are amputees.
Not everything is for you. Some of these "lazy" products can genuinely help people.
Another great video! The easiest way to peal an egg is to slide the dome of a spoon between the egg and the shell, run it around, and the egg pops right out. Takes less than 10 seconds!
You deserve so much more subscribers♡
U r bae
I heard if you're early enough she will reply. hi Emmy 🤗😃
have a gday gmorning and or gnight guys 😊
Hello. 👋
Well, I watched a few videos on the eggies, I found yours to be the best, not just because your soo cute..lol, but decided to just boil them in the shell, they came out perfect!..for the first time!..everyone seems to have their own process, I dont know how many dozens got ruined, thanks for posting, your a real egg saver!..lol
its always cool to see kids show an interest in cooking
