Nordic Ware 2 Cavity Egg Poacher Kitchen Cooking Gadget Review

[@clairenicol2918]

“Perfect eggs every time”...except this time 🤣🤣🤣

[@andrewcullen8635]

The problem is the yolks are hard, I like mine soft. The solution to the exploding eggs is that you have cooked them for to long, The water has evaporated so they eggsplode. Solution is to add more water than they say and/or not cook them for so long? Try 45 Seconds next time, You can always cook for another 15 seconds if they need them but go for a shorter cooking time and let them stand.

[@9malls]

OK, thanks good tip.

[@cucullan1]

Really....he he he ..... eggsplode...lol :)

[@thomassicard3733]

You can change the cooking power level of your microwave, as well. I get very enjoyable results, using my (whatever?) brand 'stoacher' (steam and poach) thingy. Gotta be consistent with size of eggs and experiment with power level and time - also, figure out how long you need to NOT DISTURB the AFTER-MICROWAVING eggs-in-stoacher. You CAN perfect this method to result in extremely satisfying eggs (to your taste!) done in your microwave. I speak from experience. Less cleanup, less time.

[@mikemosko5961]

Be honest. You were hoping he would have forgotten to puncture the yolks...BOOM.... Seriously, this poucher works great. I have one. I would recommend rubbing the inside of the empty wells with margarine or use a non-stick cooking spray to make the eggs 'slide out' easier after cooking...

[@kbkesq]

Put it in enough water and you don’t even have to poke the yokes. Also you can add seasonings into the egg before cooking which is cool. Like everything bagel seasoning or cayenne or black pepper garlic powder etc. Trick is to learn your own microwave power. Undercook then go up in 5 second increments. Once you learn the setting it’s same every time like McDonald’s! 😂 And thanks for look to f out they are Made in USA.

[@starfire746]

Purchased this item three weeks ago. I am happy with this product.

[@michaelsearnest]

I just pulled mines out of the cupboard, dusted it off and gave it a good scrubby. The trick, is no trick. Drop your eggs in, fill rest with water, DONT STAB THE EGGS!! I sprinkled my eggs with garlic salt. Put in the micro for 45 seconds, rest for 15 seconds, check, mine needed another 15 seconds and a rest while I sparked up 2 pork sausage patties, the whole thing slid out onto my pork sausage, yum! Its not that hard to do. I like mine barely running or half done yolks.

[@HTMLguruLady2]

A LITTLE overcooked??? Those are nearly hard boiled 😂😂😂

[@libertylover81]

LMAO!

[@jamessong3393]

omg 😱

[@jerryswart2850]

I have a different approach and achieve nice whites and liquid yolks. For one extra large egg, I crack the egg, pour the white only into the poacher (separate white from yolk using the two shell halves) and cook the white on full power for 9 or 10 seconds. Remove from oven and dump yolk in with white and cook full power for another 20 seconds or so. Time should be adjusted for different MW ovens and two eggs at once. Tastes great on corn bread, toast, pancakes or waffles. Fast cook and clean-up.

[@juliuscaesar8801]

Ah…why spend time doing all that? Crack egg, add water, fork yoke, 48 second micro. Done.

[@kingasandi4860]

You should have tried it again on fewer seconds just to see if it works

[@danfrost3043]

I've had one of these for ages, its hard to get the egg yolk runny, usually by the time the white is cooked , the middle is hard.

[@thomassicard3733]

Yeah. 1100 watt microwave - 2 large eggs (not extra large not medium) with 1/2 tsp water added to bottom of 'bowls' before plopping in the eggiewegs - sea-level altitude - zap for 65 seconds @ 80% power - let stand for 30 seconds to finish cooking. That works for me. Nice 'stoached' eggs (steamed and poached, you see what I did there?)

[@mjstones1984]

Don't keep your eggs in the fridge and use double the amount of instructed water. Also, only cook for 30 seconds. You can always put them back in the nuke if required but you can't undo

[@Crisyog]

different settings on different microwaves will cause the eggs to cook longer or shorter I have a 700w microwave and I had to put it in there for a minute and 20 seconds and they turned out perfect but I still had to keep checking periodically to see if the eggs were it's a good little gadget have

[@hubbyhub2050]

This thing is awesome. Saves so much time.

[@jose76pe]

you are supposed to add water before dumping the eggs, usually 3/4 of the container then pour the egg in it, add salt if you want. Your eggs came overcooked and look dry.

[@williamentwistle5593]

Never use salt use vinegar or just water

[@robinyoung6533]

I found one of these while unpacking after I moved recently. Didn't have any directions or packaging so this video was very helpful. My father in law bought us a microwave that looks like it's fit for a restaurant!!! It has higher wattage than any recipe so I did 2 eggs at 49 seconds and the top exploded open! lol!! definitely going to go with less time next time but it's very useful because I make my husband egg and cheese on a roll every night so while his coffee is brewing and he's getting ready for work he just warms it up for the hour ride to the city. It's such a time/money saver to stopping at Tim Hortons or DDonuts so this will be my new best friend. Not sure what your contents are to your videos but I'm subscribing due to this straightforward to the point and helpful video. Thanks!!

[@9malls]

Thanks for watching and subscribing!

[@johnmcaulay5938]

Got one. Never used it. Need to try it.

[@9malls]

As microwave eggs cookers goes this is on the better quality side.

[@pbnjeffy1611]

Weird that I watched this on memorial Day weekend in 2021

[@StalwartShinobi]

Looks more heavy duty than my micro egg poacher but same results. Id rather have yours as mine explode sometimes too but shape of yours stops it exploding everywhere and messing the microwave

[@9malls]

Yes, this is definitely a higher quality one than the others.

[@whatever123651]

So this is good for scrambled egg right, a scrambled round?

[@RA6162]

WHAT DID HE ADD WHEN HE SAID "THERE WE GO" ? I THINK HE ADDED "THERE WE GO" TO IT AND THAT JUST DID IT ! LOL

[@tonysoprano3931]

I have one and used it several times and eggs are either over cooked at 60 seconds like yours or your undercooked at 45. I threw mine away. I now use a measuring cup with 1 cup of cold water a pinch if salt and 60 seconds in microwave.

[@shawbros]

Then you need to put it in for 52.5 seconds.

[@marcryan7800]

Add a little touch of water, and they won’t burn. Poached eggs are meant to be runny.

[@aingaeltummers]

We have these. And we add a bit more water to get soft middles. My 8 yr old LOVES this on toast before school.

[@Diana-xm1dm]

I think you need to adjust the power level if you want runny yolks.

[@robertbutler8004]

@Diana -xm1dm why not just set the timer for less time wouldn't that be smarter?

[@jimmysmall330]

Works great. Cooked mine a little longer can't eat that runny yolk. If one can eat that you can eat anything.

[@Countcho]

Just picked up one of these gadgets.

[@TMAN0603]

It was not so much overcooked but that you pierced the yolk

[@johnnydundulis602]

I added cheese to it and salt 😊 it was good

[@Countcho]

Great idea

[@waiwaianela]

WAYYYY OVERCOOKED LOL

[@jeromeomara7688]

He only needed to pierce the center of the egg yolk not kill it with a fork and he cooked it too long tht was a waste

[@michaelbaker3127]

I use one of these but find one egg cooks perfectly and the second is undercooked. So have to remove the well cooked one and put the other one back in for a few more seconds. Cannot work out why they both would not cook to the same level

[@anonymoushippopotamus8731]

That's cause you're putting the eggs in there uncentered... If you put it so that the center point between two eggs is the center of the microwave, it will rotate evenly

[@Benicetomyself]

Need to put some water in

[@jnbsp3512]

that lock design just looks like someone really wanted to mass produce some plastic nuts with an eggplant without their boss noticing

[@rosieposie4291]

I have a similar egg poacher. No need to pierce the eggs. Just fill a third full with water. Drop eggs in and microwave for a minute or more depending on how you like you eggs.

[@rebekahbreun6193]

Thanks!

[@Countcho]

Hmm mine turned out hard boiled but still good

[@thegiftlady1]

Our key to perfect poached eggs is adding a pinch of vinegar to the water. Just found a NordicWare Microwave 4 egg poacher in my mil's cabinet after she died. Will try water & vinegar and 3 min on 7 power. Let stand for 1 min. I'll be back after my experiment.

[@sproket168]

Stupid

[@anishsaxena8418]

This is not poached! This is boiled

[@geraldarcuri9307]

Looks awful. Just cook them in a small glass bowl in the microwave, just covered with warm, not hot water. A little white vinegar and salt help to quickly denature the protein in the white, so it holds together. 1 minute in most microwaves usually works fine for a slightly runny yolk, depending on what size your bowl and egg are. Another hint: unless you know when those eggs were laid, and they are fresh ( less than a week old ) the proteins in the whites will separate, causing a feathery white layer around your poached egg. You want a completely firm white. The solution with less-than-fresh eggs is to slide them into a small fine mesh sieve and allow the thinner white material to drain off for fifteen or twenty seconds, then slide the egg into the water in your bowl. Voila! Firm white surrounds your yolk.

[@AZStarYT]

Had better luck putting the whole thing in a large pot w/boiling water . . . microwaves suck at short cooking times. Best for re-heating coffee and making a cup of hot water for bullion or tea. The frequency was chosen for the water molecule, not long chain proteins.
