* zxmpi waves to sound of microwave boiling egg | 12:19 | |
penguin42 | zxmpi: Hmm, I've scrambled an egg in a microwave but never boiled one | 12:21 |
zxmpi | got one of these in lidl https://i.pinimg.com/originals/a0/07/5f/a0075fd5f8bdd70d5dadcb938e8aa2c3.jpg | 12:23 |
penguin42 | do you put water in there? | 12:25 |
zxmpi | fill with water to the top. poke egg with pin to burst the yoke. put lid on. zap in microwave for a few mins. 1 boiled egg | 12:29 |
penguin42 | is that a metal ring on it where the two parts touch? | 12:30 |
zxmpi | looks like metal, feels like metal. top and bottom. but microwave seems ok with it | 12:32 |
penguin42 | I wonder if it's on purpose for it to get hot | 12:33 |
zxmpi | well microwave cooks from within. water is only half way up egg and would boil and have steam all around it. inside the metal egg inside the plastic egg | 12:36 |
zxmpi | once in a blue moon a yolk will explode because you missed it with the pin. the plastic egg sometimes pops open but contains most of the egg when that happens | 12:37 |
* penguin42 had not realised the yolk exploding would have been an issue | 12:40 | |
zxmpi | put an average egg in microwave and it will explode. messy | 12:41 |
zxmpi | yolk is a little capsule inside egg that boils first and pops | 12:42 |
penguin42 | yeh, I'd assumed the explosion due to the shell blowing rather than the yolk specifically | 12:45 |
