I'm disabled so I stay in my bedroom pretty much all the time. My hubby has set it up with a microwave and mini fridge for my convenience. Last week, he came home from shopping at Wal-Mart with the my mini griddle for me so I can make breakfast sandwiches or hashbrowns anytime I want. I love it!
A lot of fun kitchen stuff is great for those of us with disabilities! It’s so annoying a lot of it gets written off as “lazy” because people are elitist about cooking and ableism blinds them from realizing a lot of people just can’t do stuff for mental and/or physical reasons, which is why I always try to gently remind people when they get all rude (cause I’ve seen it a LOT this holiday season)
When my oldest grandchild was about 6, his fav snack was a baked potato. I found a microwave baked potato thing and he loved beinging able to cook his own. Today, he's a father of 3 and in the medical profession. These little mini cookers are just right to get kiddos excited about cooking and experimenting. The waffle makers can cook not only waggles, bit also biscuit treats, cinnamon rolls, the quesadilla cooker makes a great grilled cheese or other hot sandwich. You have to think like a child when using them. Less ingredients is more. And kiddos love the Egg McMuffin cooker too.
The egg cooker! I have one like it and I love it, soft boiled eggs whenever I want and I don't have to fuss with the stove, and it doesn't take up much counter space. The one I have though plays a nice little tune when it's done cooking, it's a DASH one from Amazon
Yeah and alarm when done so no risk forget them. Mine even able to set to make half in one type of hardness or softness and one alarm then you just lift lid, take them out put lid on and it continue to next boil.
The buzzer is meant to be annoying. People often ignore something that is pleasant sounding. An annoying buzzer encourages you to actually get to the machine to shut off the annoying sound.
I used a version of that little noodle cooker/skillet when I was sick with Covid. I literally couldn't stand long enough to cook at the stove, but I could use that little cooker to heat up some soup, scramble a couple eggs, or fry a sausage patty while I was sitting at my desk and I felt a lot safer doing that since it didn't put me at chest level with an open flame and a pot I couldn't look into like the stove would have if I'd tried to just put a chair in front of the range. It did a surprisingly good job for only having one heat setting.
I have the dash version of the egg cooker. It works great. The audible sound isn’t a timer but minutes but rather when the volume of water evaporates. That’s why the cup has different water levels for hard vs soft boiled eggs and the omelet/poach. It’s really foolproof. Used it for all varieties of egg cooking with success for about 5 years.
I have the egg cooker. Love it. I can see how the buzzer might be annoying if you're standing over it the whole time, but when you have a house with as much ambient noise as ours and have some minor hearing issues, even just being a room away can make it easy to miss more subtle alarms like a beeping microwave; that buzzer works like a charm.
Here is a tip on the Quesadilla Maker. Use the next size up from the street taco tortilla, The overlapped parts will get sealed by the maker, Which will stop the cheese from melting out of the Quesadilla
THANK YOU for mentioning the lack of an on/off switch. I thought I was crazy for noticing just how many kitchen appliances are lacking one these days. It's such a basic feature that so many companies just seem to not care about adding and so many people just don't seem to care about it not _being_ added.
Daughter has the egg cooker, it's used every morning. She made me poached eggs in it 5 times. Quick, easy to use with the little cup and egg nail on it. Easy to clean. I had a large electric quesdilla maker, we loved the big one. Sometimes it would smoosh out cheese but we would put refried beans, chilis, onion, black or green olives, tomatoes , and cheeses. The cooking surface had the ridges but to make 4 sections. These were the roll up sandwich sized tortilla. Had a metal casing and it had non stick surface. In fact this past week I remembered it and said to daughter for Black Friday, so here we are, I best get off here and go look! It was a two for 1 deal, the other appliance was a margarita blender. The blender didn't last as long. This was fun! Thank you for showing us!
@TamarLitvot I apologize not poached but soft boiled. I was thinking about the black Friday sales and getting us a new machine. We did find one and ordered it. Soft boiled egg. Which are very good. But that being shared, the machine has a metal bottom, I wonder if a poached egg could be cooked with hot water and a little vinegar in that bottom portion. Would have to coax it into turning with a tea spoon. We will have to try that. Might be fun. I love poached eggs!
When the water evaporates in the egg cooker, the temperature of the metal goes up because the water is gone. A temp sensor knows it's done. Instant Pot and rice cooker, the same thing. When there's no water the Instant Pot says BURN.
I'm one of those weird ducks that breaks up my Ramen into smaller pieces. Don't like having 12 inches of noodles hanging from my mouth. But that's just me. 😅 The quesadilla maker reminds me of a modified George Foreman Grill. 🤔
I love all of them I have the waffle maker the omelet maker the donut maker the and the grill in the pot just added that one Love it Love them all and they go easy on the electricity bill as well😊 I also have the egg steamer and it's a glaring buzzer it's quite annoying and let you know it's done You can do them soft medium or hard depending on how much water you put in... When the water dries out in the bottom it will sound off the alarm
An IKEA induction hotplate plus a 2 quart saucepan with a lid and a small skillet will do everything those little plastic doodads will, do it better, last longer, and be less likely to burn down someone's dorm room. There's a reason you always find a mountain of these little appliances at the thrift store.
@TamarLitvot Out of curiosity, I checked Walmart's site and it turns out MyMini has a hot plate and pan set (urban cooking set) with a list price of $16. Probably a better investment than the unitaskers if you need something really cheap to get by.
I have the mini crock pot, I think it was labeled as a chocolate fondue pot. Works great to cook pre-soaked dried beans. Super easy way to keep myself supplied with a variety of different beans. Perfect for soup season. Also handy for warm dips.
It's a good way to avoid being caught up short by a recipe that needs a can of cooked beans. One less reason to run to the grocery? Works for me. :) I'm cooking for one these days, so don't have much need for mass quantities.
For the mini quesadilla maker, you needed to have it on a lower height. Notice that it presses the outside of the quesadilla, too. The problem was that it couldn't press it hard enough on the setting you picked.
I just won one of those mini electric cooker pans (it's wireless) today on Toreba and I'm so excited to use it!! I rarely go camping but I'll make use of it! Either in the garden, the dining room or use it with a friend in the park! If it snows soon, even better!
If using just cheese close on the smallest setting so the outside rim seals and leave a empty ring around the shell placing the ingredients into the center and when it closes it will melt and soread to the edges that are now sealed so no overflow .It took me a ling time to get it corrected with ingredients.Mynl sanwhich maker is the same when i make pizza pockets and cherry pie pockets .😊
I used to have a big quesadilla maker and it was awesome!! It didn’t spill out like the mini did. You could also make little sandwiches and cinnamon rolls etc
Egg steamers like these in general are quicker than boiling water, they use much less energy and the eggs peel easily. You can cook a single egg very easily in them too. I think the plastic is polypropylene which is considered safe.
And hold forever. Me 46 and moms old one still working and remeber it from before me started school. The one I have is like 7 years no problems and I eat alot of eggs
The way the egg machine works is when the water has fully evaporated it set off a chime letting you know it's done. I have a bigger one I think I can do 10 eggs or so it's got two levels. So easy and no guessing. Perfect eggs every time. Also, my preference is soft and medium boiled not big on hard.
The best, foolproof way to make hard-boiled eggs is bring water to a boil, then drop in eggs. Let boil for one minute and then take pot off burner and place on the lid. Let sit for 15+ minutes, then use to make whatever. This ALWAYS makes the perfect egg. Yellow stays yellow, nothing gets rubbery, and it has the best texture/ isn't dry.
I love the convenience of “boiled”eggs in the air fryer. The fastest, by far, and unpeel so well. (But I have an old mini egg maker that I keep at work! A bunch of us enjoy a fresh egg in the office.)
The My Mini Skillet and hot plate, I honestly love for making hot pot. I have a pioneer woman metal soup crock, it fits perfectly on it so I use it for hot pot for one. The noodle maker, can be used for that too but it just takes longer, but it works great.
The reason different levels of cooking the egg call for different levels of water is because the evaporation of the water is what tales of the machine that they're done
I was gifted the mini egg cooker and use it a lot (it has a nicer chime). It's so handy because you can do 1 or 2 eggs and (especially camping) you're not wasting water. The chime goes off based on the water you put in so you can make a soft to hard boil depending on preference and get a perfect egg every time. I didn't like cooking in the plastic tray so when I want poached I used silicon muffin cups - they look so fancy.
I love that you try these devices out. It was actually because of your video of the "itaki" a few years back that I ended up buying one. When I was staying in a place with a bunch of roommates and no privacy in the kitchen, that Itaki really helped me make easy meals when I just wanted to cook alone lol.
I have the egg cooker, I use barkeepers friend powder cleanser with a scrub daddy to wash the metal plate. It's not the funnest thing in the world to wash but the egg cooker works well and makes perfect boiled eggs that are super easy to peel♡
I have the noodle cooker, and took it with me to a convention earlier this year. I had bacon and eggs for breakfast one morning, added hash browns the next, warmed up soup, cooked shredded beef for a steak sandwich... and a few other things I can't remember. Everything worked great, but I also would have liked an on/off switch and temp control. Now, I have only found it online, but Dash does have a slightly different product that does have those things - the Urban 2-piece Cook set. Basically it's a small frying pan and hotplate. The plate does have a dial for Off, Low, Medium and High, with a few tick marks in between - a plus. Unlike the Noodle cooker, the hotplate does not double as a cooking surface, and there is no lid for the 5.5" frying pan. (Yes, I pulled it up on the website.) And it's a bit more expensive - $14 instead of $9. I've been resisting the temptation to get it for the next convention, and taking both. I always do tend to overpack...
Sure wish you had washed that little appliance before you cooked the noodles and fried the egg; also the quesadilla maker. Even though they said wipe it, I'm thinking soap and water!! But, maybe that's just me----washing new pots before using them???
The skillet is amazing for daily use. When i left the ex, i bought one of those and used it to make eggs every morning before work. It holds two us large eggs perfectly, 3 if you want to push it. I use spray oil in mine and always put it on a cutting board or plate to catch anything that falls out or the cooking spray overspray.
I have the same model of egg cooker. I use distilled water. This minimizes the stain on the cooking plate. I do get a little stain. It is easily removed with a little white vinegar and a scrub sponge. I do after every cook. That way there is no buildup
I saw the cheese mess coming!!! Too much cheese!! These minis are great for kiddos to use relatively safely. A kiddo would never have added as much cheese. The correct amount was probably in the directions. But a great demo in any event.
I ordered your head lights lol from Amazon for my two daughters who are 48 and 42 years old. I like the first cooker you had… the hard boiled egg thingy was too loud and not a fan of the quesadilla cooker… awesome ideas for my grandson who will soon start college. Thank you Emmy
If you have an air fryer then you don't need an egg cooker. Place the eggs in the basket, Heat at 275 degrees (sometimes the reheat function) for 14 to 16 minutes depending on how done you want the egg. You don't need water in the cooking process until you take them out to stop them cooking.
Thank you for reviewing products. I live alone in a very small apartment so these products are perfect for me. The egg maker is perfect for when I make potato salad. Thanks again 💜
EMMY! I'm so glad you tried another egg cooker! I was so disappointed that you didn't LOVE the one you tried before (several years ago) because I LOVE mine and tell anyone that will listen how fabulous it is! I have a Dash brand and I have the my mini - they both work well but I also hate the buzzer but I GET why it's important because the old DASH one I have WILL overcook the eggs if you don't take them out. It saves me so much water and they always peel perfectly!!! I am terrible about not watching the stove and overcooking stuff/forgetting that I turned the stove on.
With a name like "Dash", it makes me think that someone would be using it in their car on the way to work in the morning distracted from driving, kind of like that simpsons episode where Homer loaded up the car with gadgets and lost control, and then tried to send a fax for help... :P
These would have been awesome little gadgets to have when my husband and I didn't have a kitchen a few years back. We had a microwave and a mini fridge at the time. I can definitely see these being helpful in a lot of different situations. Well, the egg cooker and skillet at least 😅
I have a metal egg steamer and use it to cook eggs which you can steam or poach etc. It works as the same as that one and the alarm is supposed to be alarming. The heating element does get burnt from the eggs and from the water.
I think that the quesadilla maker would do better if you got really thin flatbreads or possibly lightly toasted one on a hot plate so that it could blow up like a balloon, so you could split the flatbread into a top and a bottom like making those delicate thin pieces of toast, that are called Melba toast. Then by controlling the amount of filling I think that the quesadillas would be fine even if you add small diced ingredients. I would be cautious not to overfill them because they might just burst through the thin pieces of flatbread. Alternatively you could make the quesadillas by using very thin egg pancakes instead of the flatbreads.
I like the Presto egg muffin cooker which not only it makes egg muffin sandwiches, it can cook muffin pizzas, and chaffles. It also "warms" up leftover hamburgers from the grill and toast your hamburger buns! I've tried the My Mini Waffle maker, it didn't crisp up the waffles, making it like pancakes, and very messy. I gave that waffle maker to Salv Army thrift store after two tries.
I recently got an electric pan/pot hybrid to use in my room (I still live with my mother and we both work from home so I have no access to the kitchen sometimes, so I have my own mini kitchen upstairs) and it’s been a game changer because I can fry eggs and make stir fried noodles on it perfectly. Before that I’ve been using that pot-style portable electric bento you’ve been sponsored by on here before and it still serves me well as an instant noodle or egg cooker.
I am fairly certain that the egg cooker chimes when the water is done evaporating. That is why they have the different measurements for each type of cooked egg.
The egg cooker knows when it’s done cooking (when water evaporates) that’s why different ways to cook the egg need different amounts of water! And I personally still keep the eggs with the pierced holes down, the only times I have leaks is when an egg cracks anyway (can still happen)
I have the my mini noodle maker and I use it at work to cook small fresh meals. And I LOVE IT. Everyone is jealous once the yummy smell hits, I’d share but it’s a portion of one ;)
I love my egg cooker! We try to stay away from unitaskers, but that particular appliance is one exception in my kitchen. It is so fast and does a great job, especially when I want a delicious jammy egg for ramen. The alarm is a lot, I had to laugh when yours went off because I know just how jarring it is, but really, that’s its only flaw in my opinion and I’ve learned to live with it. I too don’t like cooking on plastic, so I ended up buying little silicone round pans to use for doing poached eggs perfect for a little egg sandwich/toast. Yum! One pointer, pierce the air sack end of the egg and you won’t get the whites bubbling out of the hole. You’ll still get the stinky brown residue but it wipes up very easily
Dash has an egg cooker that has a gentler chime. I use it every day when I want to set and semi-forget my eggs whilst getting ready for the day. 😂 Also very handy when I want to quickly make a bunch of eggs for marinaded soy eggs or Japanese egg salad without the dangers of forgetting about them on the stove.
I'm disabled so I stay in my bedroom pretty much all the time. My hubby has set it up with a microwave and mini fridge for my convenience. Last week, he came home from shopping at Wal-Mart with the my mini griddle for me so I can make breakfast sandwiches or hashbrowns anytime I want. I love it!
Same here, i have an electric kettle i use to make tea, mashed potatos, ramen, hot chocolate, stuffing etc. It is really easy and no clean up too.
A lot of fun kitchen stuff is great for those of us with disabilities! It’s so annoying a lot of it gets written off as “lazy” because people are elitist about cooking and ableism blinds them from realizing a lot of people just can’t do stuff for mental and/or physical reasons, which is why I always try to gently remind people when they get all rude (cause I’ve seen it a LOT this holiday season)
When my oldest grandchild was about 6, his fav snack was a baked potato. I found a microwave baked potato thing and he loved beinging able to cook his own. Today, he's a father of 3 and in the medical profession. These little mini cookers are just right to get kiddos excited about cooking and experimenting. The waffle makers can cook not only waggles, bit also biscuit treats, cinnamon rolls, the quesadilla cooker makes a great grilled cheese or other hot sandwich.

The egg cooker! I have one like it and I love it, soft boiled eggs whenever I want and I don't have to fuss with the stove, and it doesn't take up much counter space. The one I have though plays a nice little tune when it's done cooking, it's a DASH one from Amazon
We have that one too. Cutest chime/ tune.
Yeah and alarm when done so no risk forget them. Mine even able to set to make half in one type of hardness or softness and one alarm then you just lift lid, take them out put lid on and it continue to next boil.

I was going to say this - buzzes when water is gone and amount of water determines how long the eggs cook. It’s clever!
These would be great for camper use.

How do you make poached eggs in the egg cooker?

The best part of your clips are the messy parts. Love your clips. I learned I will probably buy the egg cooker. Thanks Emmy.
My pleasure.🙇🏻♀️
I lived in a town with a creamery and we would buy cheese and my uncle would fry the cheese in a pan and slip it onto toast. Delicious browned edges!
@@emmymade I love that you show those messy bits too because it's very human and relatable! 😅❤
Emmy charitably describing these as "cute" and "tiny" while being obviously disappointed makes me feel strange. Like prom night all over again.
Well this sure beats a cloths iron with the hot side up balanced between biology books!

Totally agree. Much more versatile. And if you have a small skillet, quesadillas are extremely easy to make, no need for a special device.
Almost certainly true, but not everyone can shell out $60 for a hot plate.
The $9 price tags will look pretty appealing to broke students.
@@earthiswatching That's a good point.

Ha! I never thought to read what the serving size, just ate the whole lot.
When the water evaporates the egg timer goes off. I did soft to medium. They were perfect. You don’t have to time it.
Happy holidays, Emmy!

The skillet is amazing for daily use. When i left the ex, i bought one of those and used it to make eggs every morning before work. It holds two us large eggs perfectly, 3 if you want to push it. I use spray oil in mine and always put it on a cutting board or plate to catch anything that falls out or the cooking spray overspray.
I’ve never been this early! I love it here!!!
I have the same model of egg cooker. I use distilled water. This minimizes the stain on the cooking plate. I do get a little stain. It is easily removed with a little white vinegar and a scrub sponge. I do after every cook. That way there is no buildup
I saw the cheese mess coming!!! Too much cheese!! These minis are great for kiddos to use relatively safely. A kiddo would never have added as much cheese. The correct amount was probably in the directions. But a great demo in any event.
I think if you had pressed harder down on the lid, It may have sealed the edges too, and not lost so much cheese.
I ordered your head lights lol from Amazon for my two daughters who are 48 and 42 years old. I like the first cooker you had… the hard boiled egg thingy was too loud and not a fan of the quesadilla cooker… awesome ideas for my grandson who will soon start college. Thank you Emmy
I buy Shin cups every week. The spicy one is my fav and I eat them most days. They are so good! And now I may try it with an egg next time.
You can take the multi cooker to work and cook lunch!
If you have an air fryer then you don't need an egg cooker. Place the eggs in the basket, Heat at 275 degrees (sometimes the reheat function) for 14 to 16 minutes depending on how done you want the egg. You don't need water in the cooking process until you take them out to stop them cooking.
Lovely Emmy, I hope you have a happy holiday season with your family!!! ✨💖✨
Thank you, you, too.🧡
Least the headband didn't make you lightheaded. ;)
I love my little egg cooker. Perfect to make a batch of hardboiled eggs for deviled eggs for a holiday meal
Emmy, put the noodles on top, and the steam will loosen them up enough to go in.
yay i love this concept! excited to see the full video :)
They are exactly like dash products
You can use a collapsing metal vegetable basket for steaming eggs in a pot. Works real well and cost $6.99 here in Canada NS
9:14 the laugh😂
Thank you for reviewing products. I live alone in a very small apartment so these products are perfect for me. The egg maker is perfect for when I make potato salad. Thanks again 💜
Emmy shin black Ramen is the bomb.❤😊 thanks for sharing
I love my egg cooker. I use it to steam mini potatoes too and it works a charm :)
EMMY! I'm so glad you tried another egg cooker! I was so disappointed that you didn't LOVE the one you tried before (several years ago) because I LOVE mine and tell anyone that will listen how fabulous it is! I have a Dash brand and I have the my mini - they both work well but I also hate the buzzer but I GET why it's important because the old DASH one I have WILL overcook the eggs if you don't take them out. It saves me so much water and they always peel perfectly!!! I am terrible about not watching the stove and overcooking stuff/forgetting that I turned the stove on.
With a name like "Dash", it makes me think that someone would be using it in their car on the way to work in the morning distracted from driving, kind of like that simpsons episode where Homer loaded up the car with gadgets and lost control, and then tried to send a fax for help... :P
It's just me and use these cooker ❤
These would have been awesome little gadgets to have when my husband and I didn't have a kitchen a few years back. We had a microwave and a mini fridge at the time. I can definitely see these being helpful in a lot of different situations. Well, the egg cooker and skillet at least 😅
I have a metal egg steamer and use it to cook eggs which you can steam or poach etc. It works as the same as that one and the alarm is supposed to be alarming. The heating element does get burnt from the eggs and from the water.
I think that the quesadilla maker would do better if you got really thin flatbreads or possibly lightly toasted one on a hot plate so that it could blow up like a balloon, so you could split the flatbread into a top and a bottom like making those delicate thin pieces of toast, that are called Melba toast. Then by controlling the amount of filling I think that the quesadillas would be fine even if you add small diced ingredients. I would be cautious not to overfill them because they might just burst through the thin pieces of flatbread. Alternatively you could make the quesadillas by using very thin egg pancakes instead of the flatbreads.
I like the Presto egg muffin cooker which not only it makes egg muffin sandwiches, it can cook muffin pizzas, and chaffles. It also "warms" up leftover hamburgers from the grill and toast your hamburger buns! I've tried the My Mini Waffle maker, it didn't crisp up the waffles, making it like pancakes, and very messy. I gave that waffle maker to Salv Army thrift store after two tries.
I have all of the mini products and some other brands of mini cooking things
I recently got an electric pan/pot hybrid to use in my room (I still live with my mother and we both work from home so I have no access to the kitchen sometimes, so I have my own mini kitchen upstairs) and it’s been a game changer because I can fry eggs and make stir fried noodles on it perfectly. Before that I’ve been using that pot-style portable electric bento you’ve been sponsored by on here before and it still serves me well as an instant noodle or egg cooker.
This was a really fun episode! I have steam egg cooker and LOVE it!
I like the mymini toaster! I usually only eat one piece of toast, one pop tart or whatever...its slim and works great
Love you Emmy! Easily clean off egg tray after use w a little vinegar. 💕
Merry Christmas 🎄
I am fairly certain that the egg cooker chimes when the water is done evaporating. That is why they have the different measurements for each type of cooked egg.
I have the egg cooker and I love it. Been using it for many years.
The egg cooker knows when it’s done cooking (when water evaporates) that’s why different ways to cook the egg need different amounts of water! And I personally still keep the eggs with the pierced holes down, the only times I have leaks is when an egg cracks anyway (can still happen)
Would the egg cooker work as a hot plate with a regular, small pot on it?
I have the my mini noodle maker and I use it at work to cook small fresh meals. And I LOVE IT. Everyone is jealous once the yummy smell hits, I’d share but it’s a portion of one ;)
I'd love to see more of what the egg cooker can do! You read off so many different recipes for it.
Happy Holidays

The residue left in the egg cooker is from the eggs and from the minerals in your water. It's good idea to wipe it out after each use.
These seem perfect for use in a student accommodation. Food for one. Like them, but power switches are important.
I love my egg cooker! We try to stay away from unitaskers, but that particular appliance is one exception in my kitchen. It is so fast and does a great job, especially when I want a delicious jammy egg for ramen. The alarm is a lot, I had to laugh when yours went off because I know just how jarring it is, but really, that’s its only flaw in my opinion and I’ve learned to live with it. I too don’t like cooking on plastic, so I ended up buying little silicone round pans to use for doing poached eggs perfect for a little egg sandwich/toast. Yum!
One pointer, pierce the air sack end of the egg and you won’t get the whites bubbling out of the hole. You’ll still get the stinky brown residue but it wipes up very easily
Dash has an egg cooker that has a gentler chime. I use it every day when I want to set and semi-forget my eggs whilst getting ready for the day. 😂 Also very handy when I want to quickly make a bunch of eggs for marinaded soy eggs or Japanese egg salad without the dangers of forgetting about them on the stove.
