    DO NOT TRY AT HOME! I'm cleaning up the exploding mess as we speak. I should've been weary when she put salt in the water, salt slows down the boiling process and it only somewhat increases the water temperature to a negligible degree, I'm not sure where she gets the egg white bit from flowing off of cracks that she mentions on another comment. The salt for boiling is a common misconception, so I figured I'd give her the benefit of the doubt, but I should've known better, without a means for the pressure to be released, the eggs will explode, I knew that, and I still gave it a try, that's on me.

      First of all, I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused to cleaning.
      I've heard that in common stovetop recipes, salt is used to coagulate the egg whites. It is my guess, not scientific reasoning, that microwave ovens will be similar. Sorry for the confusion.
      I've been using it for over 3 years since I discovered this recipe.
      I have a 25 year (600 watt), 6 year old microwave (700 watt). Both types are in the works and have never exploded. I always cook 6 eggs. I uploaded a video because I thought it was a good recipe in my experience.
      There may be variables not mentioned in the video.
      1. Did you use room temperature eggs?
      2. Did you use a low power microwave (less than 600 watts)?
      3. Did the egg have microscopic cracks?
      4. If you put it in cold water immediately after cooking, it may explode. (Leave for a few minutes after cooking, then remove from microwave.)
      In addition to this, undesirable results may occur due to variables that I did not think of.
      It's a recipe I learned through Google, and not all recipes can be put into practice through scientific thinking, but microwave egg recipes can be more dangerous than you think.
      Please read this pinned comment and hope viewers use it safely.

      maybe she's using a 1000W microwave adn you're using a 2000W microwave?

      I thought a bit about it and I agree with you about salt being negligible in increasing water temperature as long as we're talking about the colligative property known as boiling-point elevation. But in a microwave oven we should also take into account the interaction between charged particles and electric field: salt ions should absorb microwave energy more efficiently, and they should release it to the surrounding water as heat. It should be easy to demonstrate this: two identical bowls with identical amount of water, with and without salt, heated at same wattage and time, then measure temperature. In principle, this mechanism should also prevent the microwave heating the egg directly from the inside, thus avoiding the pressure that makes the egg explode. Is this countermeasure enough? I don't know and I'm not gonna try it until I figure it out, too many comments reporting explosions and oven cleaning (and I'm too lazy for that).
      BTW, in another video I saw a guy making a pinhole on the egg shell that could prevent pressure building up. I also have the feeling that the water level could play a role in it.

      I did this once and set them in a bowl on the kitchen table, (about 10 eggs) I turned my back to pick up my beer, looked at my friend theat was starring at the bowl because the eggs had started "vibrating". Then "pow, pow,pow) they all started exploding like poultry hand grenades!. LOL. My girlfriend woke up, ran to the kitchen and the eggs were even on the cieling. Fun.@@cpav9062

    I found a way to do this successfully. After boiling water only for about 5 mins, I drop the eggs in the hot water and leave it for about 1-2 mins. Then I heat it up for 2 mins. Leave it alone for 2 mins and the eggs come out fine

    Personally, do not try even with low heat / watt microwave and just boil the eggs over a stove. It's best to be safe than to attempt, since microwaved eggs with shells even on water explodes.

    Sorry but I can't see the point? By the time you boil the water and pfaff about with the bowl and cling film, it would take just as long, or longer, than just boiling?

    If I'm supposed to boil water first (and I need to filter this before or I'll constantly have limestone in my kettle) a d I need plastic wrap for this, which always plays tricks at me, I'll stick to traditional boiling.

    Why need salt

    • @joonslittlekitchen
      @joonslittlekitchen  Рік тому +1

      It's just my guess.
      I think salt raises the temperature of the water and helps prevent the egg whites from flowing out when the egg cracks.
