I reveal here my tip for cooking hard-boiled eggs in the micro- waves in 4 minutes chrono.
I love hard-boiled eggs, cooked perfectly.
In a salad, in a sandwich or just to bite into with salt, it's excellent.
And it must be said that cooking in the microwave is really practical.
Especially if you don't have a hotplate on hand.
But you know the problem? In the microwave, the egg may tend to explode.
So, how to cook a hard-boiled egg in the microwave quickly without danger and without cracking the walls?
I give you my easy tip and instructions for perfect cooking without risk of explosion . Watch:
- microwave oven
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- bowl large enough to put the eggs
- cold water
1. Put two eggs in the bowl.
2. Cover them with water so that they are well submerged.
3. Add the salt to the water.
4. Put in the oven at 1500 watts for 4 min.
5. Once the time has elapsed, let the eggs cool in the water for 3 min.
And There you go ! You now know how to cook hard-boiled eggs in the microwave in just 4 minutes :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
And above all delicious, because the cooking is perfect without using tupperware!
The eggs are hard-boiled, but the yolk remains slightly soft.
In addition, the eggs do not crush when cut.
They are therefore really presentable if you receive guests.
Depending on the power of your oven, you may need to adjust the cooking time.
If you decide to cook more eggs, no worries!
Just count 1/2 teaspoon of salt per egg.
And for the cooking time, follow these recommendations:
4 min for 2 eggs, 5 min for 4 eggs or 6 min for 6 eggs.
Do you like soft-boiled eggs?
No problem, it works too.
Just stop the cooking by plunging the eggs into a bowl of ice water as soon as they come out of the oven.
You prefer boiled eggs.
At this point, finish cooking and leave the eggs for 1 more minute in the hot water.
Then, immerse them in cold water.
The yolk is cooked, but still runny. A real delight!
Salt water prevents the shell from splitting or explode when microwaved.
If the shell remains intact, the yolk can cook slowly while remaining tender.
My mother, she drilled a small hole in the shell, but did not put salt in the water.
Both tips are effective, but you shouldn't do both at the same time!
To save energy, I advise you to harden and heat several eggs at the same time .
Don't worry, it can be kept!
Did you know that there is a special box, called Easy Eggs, to cook eggs in the microwave?
This box prevents explosions and also allows you to keep the eggs in the fridge.
Then, just store hard-boiled, unshelled eggs in an airtight container with a paper towel in the bottom.
They keep for up to 7 days in the fridge.
Did you keep the carton of eggs?
You can put the cooked eggs back in to keep them cool.
