There certainly is a trick to peeling hard boiled eggs, if you peel a small hole in one side of the egg and another slightly large hole in the other side, what you can do is blow in the smaller side and the egg will slide straight out, you'll see!
For perfect hard boiled eggs easy to peel, forget salt and all that nonsense that doesn't work. What you do, get the water boiling first, slip the eggs in after it starts boiling, (leave the water a bit low so you don't have to drop them a long way in and break them, cook 8 or 9 minutes, then place them in cold water that stays cold, either a pan of ice water or run cold water continuously into the pot in the sink.Let them stay cold for a long time. Easy to peel every time. No complicated 'eggies' no salt, etc.
Oh man that really takes me back! My grandmother used to make eggs and soldiers for me all the time. She was from Scotland. I used to love them :) Haven't had them in probably 15 years though
I'm a rooster teeth paid subscriber. i just told my 5th person what ASMR is, since i seem to be the only person at my store who is a fan of both ASMR and RVB
I think the tray was for confectionary chocolates. But as long as you get use out of them, by all means use them for ice. If you did want to make chocolate morsels, you could temper some chocolate, make some ganache and have at that too. Yum
The egg separator is probably the best "tool" that came in the box (based on what I've seen from this video). It actually looks like a helpful and safe way to remove the egg whites from the yolks, without breaking the yolks. It could be marketable on it's own, for people that don't like to use the pass the yolk method (from 1/2 the shell to the other 1/2 shell) to separate their eggs.
I really think that that IS a mini ice cube tray! My grandparents had one in their freeze for forever and then I took it to college with me. . The cubes are perfect size for putting in water bottles!
The trick to peeling hard-boiled eggs is to plunge the just-cooked eggs under cold water (I leave the faucet running over the pot full of eggs for a couple of min). Always makes it easy to peel them later. Great vid, I love thrifty Thursdays. :)
Tiny icecubes are great for making sauces to be used later. You make a sauce and then, while it is still very, very hot, you pour it out and make ice cubes. You can then keep those cubes in a plastic bag or something in your freezer, and throw them into a dish that you're cooking for instant sauce. I bet each cube is 1 teaspoon. You can also get 1 tablespoon ones. Great for making stir fries and whatnot.
I kinda wish your cam angled down a bit at the beginning so we could see what you are doing more than you haing to work to keep holding things up for us. Just thinking of you, ya know, we don't want you working yourself to death for for lil ol us. haha! :( Other than that, it's a tinglefest!! lol, thanks, girly. :)
i would totally use that tray to make and bake miniature cookies or push cheese into it to mold tiny cheese cubes! thank you so much for your asmr video contributions they mean so much too me! your love of mini things puts a smile on my face!
It is actually a mini ice cube tray. My grandfather used to have 3 trays in 1993. So for me yes a classic... Awesome... Inspired me to go to a local goodwill
I think also that the tiny ice cube tray could be used to freeze like lemon or lime juice (any fruit really) and then add it to your water to give it a little flavor. I think that would be kind of cool
BTW, a lot of people use icecubes that small for minced garlic. Mince up garlic, throw it in icecube tray to freeze. Maybe with a little bit of melted butter to give it more shape, then keep the cubes. Also minced ginger and herbs. When you get a bunch of fresh herbs you can mince them and freeze them in into ice cubes, again maybe with a little butter.
Trick to peel hard boiled eggs is under warm faucet water, you can press a little on the egg while peeling to get the water in between the shell and the egg. It's much easier.
The jello sounds like a cute idea but remember if you never freeze them after the cooling process they will still remain soft and it could be a little messy if not done in a perfect ratio. However if you could make it work, you should deff add vodka & make jello cube shots :) just a thought. Good luck!
You know what, I think you're probably right. That might help! I'll try it before giving up entirely, thanks! And thank you for the kind words. It is my pleasure! :)
i think that the time it takes to put the Eggies together and to put the non stick spray on and to crack in the raw eggs, you would have the eggs in the shells half cooked already. also once you remove the egg shells, you don't have to wash the shells. you do however have to wash the eggies
After you cook the egg you plunge it into ice water. And I mean drain out the water you used to boil the eggs in, pour in a little bit of water and then put in ice. You need to stop the cooking process. Leave them for about 15 to 20 minutes Then peel them.
I really enjoyed this one. I hope the eggs tasted OK. I would love to see you make little jello cubes. I would suggest, since you'll be using a dropper, to make them in 3 different colors -- lime green, lemon yellow, and neon orange -- and then mix them up in a bowl. Keep up the good work. You are wonderful!
Gold star for creativity I don't think I've seen so many different subjects of discussion in asmr since Silentcitadels videos.Man I need another tablet!I forgot how relaxing and entertaining your vids are...nice work again Alleycat!Love your vids!
If you've been back and forth to a video and can never seem to move to the newer episodes, you know that ASMR artist is good. Ally is the read deal, folks.
Also a quick way to peal a hard boil egg or a trick to doing it quickly is as follow: Peal both ends of the egg, top and bottom. Grip the egg and blow through the top of the egg (The pointy tip?) with the larger end being the exit. The egg should shoot out of the shell smoothly if the holes you pealed were large enough.
Thanks so much for telling us what you donated. Ever since I started watching your Thrifty Thursday videos, I've been dying of curiosity to know what you've donated!!
Rolling the hard boiled egg gently on a surface, enough to crack the shell without squashing it, usually helps. Although sometimes even that can be a hit or miss.
FYI, tap a boiled egg on both ends, then roll on some kitchen towel. Find the air sac on the top or bottom of the egg and peel. Voila, it comes off in one piece!
The ice cube tray looks like one of those trays that people use to freeze fresh herbs for later use. You'd chop up some of the fresh herbs and put a tiny bit of water into the cube with the herbs. When you need a fresh herb, you just pop a couple out and add them to whatever dish you're cooking :) You can actually buy the pre-made herb trays at the grocery store too. Have a basil, garlic, and cilantro one in my freezer right now.
Thank you!! I think that I must have the best subscribers. Better than anyone else's! You guys actually took the trouble to google the answer for me. I love that!!
Aw this is lovely (as ever). I had no idea that soft boiled eggs and buttered toast soldiers are just a UK thing. The best, especially if you're ill or feeling low.
You should use your egg separator to make pancakes/waffles - mix the yolks in with your wet ingredients and the add to dry ingredients. Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped whites into your batter right before cooking & pancakes/waffles will be fluffy as clouds! :)
I MISS THIS SERIES!!!
"I'm not obsessed with ice cubes. I just.....
...I might be obsessed with ice cubes."
LOL!
I
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Bring back Thrifty Thursday's
Thrifty Tingles (which is what she does now) is the same as Thrifty Thursday
MissBluey 🤟😡🤘
They could make baby jello cubes or baby Popsicles. I don't know what those trays are really for but it could be a lot of fun to try new things!
I had an icecube tray like that in my hotel room freezer. I was jumping for joy for the tiny little ice cubes.
I never imagined I'd have so many tingles from a conversation about ice cube trays and eggies, but this was amazing!
I think thats for making sugar cubes :)
You could also use it to make a giant Chocolate bar or tiny chocolate cubes
I wish she still made this series
She does! :) it's called thrifty tingles now
Awww, thank you Holly! I love reading your comments - they always brighten my day! You're too kind. :)
Gurl. I wouldn't judge you if I wanted to. I just Downed a bag of chips while watching an SUV rollover documentary and realized I needed to sleep
Ryan Adkins living the dream
can you imagine 90 mini jello cubes!!!!!! my heart would explode from da cuteness.
"I'm gonna have 90 tiny ice cubes! Oh my God!" Haha! You're so funny! :D
The soul-searching epiphany when you question your love of ice cubes was really adorable and wonderful.
Everytime I buy a gadget to do with eggs it never seems to work
It's not odd at all! I got a friend the sphere one for their birthday, they're great :) The spherical ice lasts longer, and it just looks cool :P
I was all relaxed and happy and I was just about to drift off to sleep when my lamp falls off my desk bringing my alarm clock down with it... 😴❌
rest in peace

Easy to peel every time. No complicated 'eggies' no salt, etc.
Or just boil them with baking soda crack 2 openings (1on top one on bottom ) and blow the the top hole then the egg slides out the bottom hole
Or just spend 6 hours trying to wrestle with those 'eggie' gimmicks and fail to get good eggs after all that, hehe
If you want to make a drink that needs crushed ice then these would be perfect sized to put into the blender!
what if howtobasic did an asmr video
you literally just made my day
Holly Buell thanks
Tell him to do it:)
Some body make that happen now
Oh man that really takes me back! My grandmother used to make eggs and soldiers for me all the time. She was from Scotland. I used to love them :) Haven't had them in probably 15 years though
9:50 from then on is the most relaxing point in the video
7yrs ago? Feels like last week. Time really flies when you're not paying attention.

i'm pretty sure that is an ice cube tray for water bottles
Jen H THATS THE BEST EVER

It looks like something you'd use to put watercolour paint cartridges in. :)
Nice! Do you use them constantly?
"Not ur hot grandma" FUNNY
When does she say that?
1:38
Thanks, Lola! I'm glad you enjoyed it! ^__^
You could also use it for chocolate.
I really think that that IS a mini ice cube tray! My grandparents had one in their freeze for forever and then I took it to college with me. . The cubes are perfect size for putting in water bottles!
"YOU are at the mercy of the egg!"
you are becoming my new favourite ASMRist - reliably regular, great at the craft, sweet and dedicatedly fearless.
I don't believe for a second that the bathrobe didn't look good on you. You could make a burlap sack look like Haute Couture!

I will totally try this! Thank you!!

It's the iPhone 50! xD
PandaSong LOŁ
Time travel Tuesday, a RP, & a thrifty Thursday. I had a great sleeping week!!
I'm an egg activist and this is egg abuse in it's highest form.
Lol
Joe Conley I'm so pissed you didn't use eggtivist...
Yes to the Jelly........ loved the video, a good mix of tingle's, sleepiness (counting the ice/jello tray) and smiles.
Wait, if you put potatoes in it you could make fry bits from Steven Universe!
i would totally use that tray to make and bake miniature cookies or push cheese into it to mold tiny cheese cubes! thank you so much for your asmr video contributions they mean so much too me! your love of mini things puts a smile on my face!
The (ice cube tray) is actually for wines not cooling drinks in glasses
Agvan Badmaev I'm a tad confused... how does that work?
About what
Well- How is it used for wine?
You make the ice cubes then insert the wine or champagne bottle in the ice
OHHHHHH! Okay~! Thanks~
It is actually a mini ice cube tray. My grandfather used to have 3 trays in 1993. So for me yes a classic... Awesome... Inspired me to go to a local goodwill
That's not an ice cube tray it's a Urine sample medical tray, it's what doctors use or use to use anyway.
lol I'd be pissed if that was true. Pissed...hah.
good lord
I'll try to remember each week from now on! :)
Omg, I you must be good at math, I couldn't calculate 15 x 6 so fast...
it's 90 15+15=30 30 ×3=90 15×6=90 it took me about 4 seconds
+Marlatt Reptiles I would say about 3 4/5 of a second
+Marlatt Reptiles ohhh calm down there math wiz.
Lol
I do 6x10 + 6x5 = 90... Takes about 3.000927 seconds.
If you add some baking soda to your water when boiling hard boiled eggs...shell slips right off in two peels! Amazing!
It's definitely an ice cube tray.

EGGcellent video, Ally. ;)

Thank you, your support means the world to me. :P
YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE AMAZING
You know what, I think you're probably right. That might help! I'll try it before giving up entirely, thanks! And thank you for the kind words. It is my pleasure! :)
The jello cubes sound like a fabulous idea! Thanks for another great video!
I'd watch that series!!

Don't worry, that's how all of my attempts at eggies turned out, too. Also, I think teeny little jello cubes would be adorable!

Use it for whatever u want and I agree with the girl about doing a main video cause your nails always look so pretty
Thanks so much for telling us what you donated. Ever since I started watching your Thrifty Thursday videos, I've been dying of curiosity to know what you've donated!!
That moment of your self realization with your obsession to ice cubes is priceless lol

Thank you!! I think that I must have the best subscribers. Better than anyone else's! You guys actually took the trouble to google the answer for me. I love that!!
You're definitely my favorite ASMR channel. No pressure on the Departure video, your other videos are just as amazing!
Ooooh, cool! That could be a good role play video!
Eggs with soldiers...Now that is some serious nostalgia haha! I always use to ask my parents and grandparents when I was younger for those! :-)
i love your thrifty thursday videos, and for next week please get a new item. love your little things that you find.
Aw this is lovely (as ever). I had no idea that soft boiled eggs and buttered toast soldiers are just a UK thing. The best, especially if you're ill or feeling low.
The jello idea sounds awesome
Thank you! I need to try that!
Omg my mom uses eggies and if u put all the spices and stuff u want inside the thing it's literally the best thing ever
I hope you're super rested for the weekend, Courtney!
You should use your egg separator to make pancakes/waffles - mix the yolks in with your wet ingredients and the add to dry ingredients. Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped whites into your batter right before cooking & pancakes/waffles will be fluffy as clouds! :)
I'm all for this Jello idea, by the by.
