Now I want those. Dang it! My ice ball radar is pinging.
Excuse me while I go to Amazon.
Is a baked egg anything like a hard boiled egg (i.e. soft on the outside but cooked all the way through)?
Yes, though it might have some harmless brown spots from where the egg was in contact with a hot surface.
Looking at the other photos, they make hollow eggs.
- Yes, you will need to sacrifice 1 egg for each white-only-egg required.
- Inject the white in using a piping bag or kitchen syringe.
You can improvise a piping bag by snipping the corner off a plastic bag.
Wrap the shell in cling-film/shrink wrap before boiling.
It always sounds more convincing coming from Jeff Goldblum.
Stranger
I’ll give you a whole quatloo if you can show me somebody using that kind of improvised piping bag to inject egg whites into a pinhole hole in an eggshell.
Buying a syringe is a better idea.
Kitchen syringe might be best, and I like the Idea of using cling wrap.
True.
Although you’d be injecting through the larger hole, not the pinhole - it’d still
be a tall order !
… but … a whole quatloo ! I’ll start practicing.
He should talk (Remember The Fly?).
Try out a plastic egg. The water doesn’t have to be boiling. If you can break some eggs just right you can make halves with those and use some egg white to glue the halves together.
Simpler, hardboil an egg, peel and slice it in half while hot, remove the yolk, fill the empty halves with egg white and resume cooking until the voids set, then glue it together with egg white.
If all else fails, find a plastic tube tube or container of the approximate diameter of egg, cook some egg white in it, then carve an egg out of the result.
Don’t mean to be intrusive @Czarcasm, but is there a reason you wanna do this, you can share?
Just curious.
If you get suitable mold-pieces, and a large enough quantity of egg white, you could submerge the two pieces of the mold before putting them together. That way you wouldn’t need to cook the halves separately and “glue them together”.
There is an elegant egg cooking method I thought was called “shirred eggs” but that doesn’t seem to be it. You get you egg whites ready in a measuring cup. Have a pot of simmering water ready and whip it into a whirlpool. Gently pour the egg into the middle of the whirlpool where they will form a more or less round shape completely suspended in the water. Just let the whirlpool slow down until the eggs are cooked. I’ve never tried it so I don’t know if the egg cooks together as a more or less solid mass or what.
Poached
Yep. Shirred eggs are cooked in a dish/ramekin. Poached eggs are a fairly standard way of preparing eggs and can involve a whirlpool, but are basically eggs cooked in a liquid (typically water.) If you’ve ever had Eggs Benedict, you’ve had poached eggs.
You can buy liquid eggwhites by the gallon. I wonder do they boil up to a solid? I assume they are for baking. But it seems you can make eggwhite only omelette from them.
It would make it easier than saving all those actual egg whites for the eggwhite boiled egg experiments.
Google Jello jiggler egg mold.
These maybe?

Great for cooling, but can you boil them?
