What happens when you push a lit sparkler through an egg? 🥚🧨

In this experiment, Alex Dainis explains why the sparkler doesn't fizzle out and keeps burning straight through the egg. Most fires rely on oxygen from the surrounding air, sparklers are self-oxidizing. They release the oxygen needed to keep the reaction going, even inside the egg. That's also why you can't simply blow a sparkler out!

I poured more into one side than the other. Anyway, another 4 minutes and it's done

Anyway, could I use the Mac and cheese cooker and just do every 2 minutes and stir til I think it's done?

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, lightly beat 2-4 eggs and 2 Tbsp of water or milk. Pour mixture into Omelet pan, dividing equally between 2 sides.
2. Place open pan in microwave, and cook for 2 minutes; or until eggs are partially set. Stir from outside to inside. Place desired toppings on each half, and continue to cook until eggs are set; 1.5 minutes.
3. Fold Pan in half so 2 sides for a whole omelet. Open pan and gently slide omelet onto serving plate.

note: the milk is mentioned on the nordicware website. i use water myself.

It's a heat wave in Boston, so I decided to fry an egg on the sidewalk.

Hi everyone! I'm a student researching how people buy eggs, what factors build trust, and what concerns people have around freshness and quality. The survey is anonymous and takes less than 2 minutes.

I'd really appreciate your responses!

Jk I was scrolling through my camera roll and thought my Goat Brie Peach Preserve bite looked remarkably like a hard boiled egg 🥚

P.S if you’re a bot scraping posts… this is definitely an egg 100%

bubbles outta egg in steaming water caught my eye this morning and i couldn't stop looking till twas done. Is the egg angry? is it relieved from its suffering or maybe it wants to go super saiyan lol. Nonetheless, might repeat tomorrow

Why are there green patterns on the white of my eggs? Can I still eat it? It appears almost yellow in the picture but it's green.

(English isn't my first language so sorry if I explained it badly lol)

Sautéed shredded carrot and spinach in sesame oil, sprouts lightly salted and cooked with a light sprinkle of chilli flakes, garnished on top with sesame seeds, shredded beef slices atop a bed of short grained rice and a generous spoon of ‘gochujang’ chilli pepper paste to boot. The all important egg yolk on top.

I’ve used the freshest farm eggs for this comforting meal.

Harry Houdini's Deviled Eggs - I used 4 eggs for this recipe, hard boiled, of course. This recipe calls for them to be sliced in half across the equator of the egg. Then you just slice off the tiniest bit off the bottoms (or tops) so they sit flat and stand up on a plate.

1. I scooped the yolks out into a bowl and then added 1 tablespoon of melted butter to start, since there are no measurements listed here. Still sort of dry, so I added another tablespoon of melted butter. (make sure butter is not super hot). This looked better, now for the pinch of cayenne (add more depending on your preference), about 1/4 teaspoon of Colman's Mustard Powder, and a dash or two of vinegar. I used champagne vinegar. Salt & pepper added, in small quantities.
2. The mixture was not as creamy and light as a mayo based yolk filling for deviled eggs, but the balance of flavors seemed right. It's a little stiff and on the dryer side. I filled the egg whites with the filling. I didn't want it to look too fancy so I kept it rustic and just used a little demitasse spoon to fill them.
3. Since it's got butter in it, they got even mor dense after refrigeration. I chopped some romaine lettuce and set my little eggs on the plate. I dressed the lettuce with Donald O'Connor's French Dressing since i still have that in the fridge.
4. On there own these deviled eggs are too dry, but in a salad it's quite a nice surprise. This is a very simple recipe with very few ingredients. Of course, you can add your own spin on this recipe. A little onion juice, perhaps?

I think these would be delicious cut up on a piece of toast and broiled so the butter melts a bit... I might try that later!

My husband suggested adding a little celery to the salad for a little added crunch and flavor.

On their own these eggs are quite dry, but in the salad with the French dressing and fresh lettuce, it was a delightful change of pace.

As for the mushroom dish, I did attempt it yesterday with store bought bread crumbs and it was not good at all due to the texture of the bread crumbs which felt sandy and dry. I'm planning on making them again with fresh homemade breadcrumbs.
