Is this what I should use for making purple pickled eggs? - Or is there something better for that purpose?

Although I did not use it for dying eggs, I suppose it might work great for that. Give it a try.

I was not able to find any refill kits, but you can Mix Color Tablets from Easter decorating packages with 1oz water and TSP of vinegar. If you want to eat the eggs use Natural Dyes like, Blue Berries, Radish Skin, Red and Yellow Onion Peal, Beets, Tea, Coffee, etc. You can also use Kool-Aid Packets, Jell-O Packets, Soda Stream Syrup, etc. Food Coloring also works, add a SMALL amount of vinegar to mixture for better results.

Yes, it works well. That's the reason I bought it, actually. Take the top off the shell, make a rich creamy egg custard base, 3/4 fill the shells with the custard and a pinch of fresh herbs, or a pinch of finely diced sautéed mushrooms and some sort of meat, or foie gras, and float the filled shells on 180°F water to set them. You can set the custards with steam, also.

Hi Joyce: I don't know about pickling peaches. I use mine to ferment vegetables such as sauerkraut and pickles and it does a great job. I have a few of the more expensive German made crocks and the Ohio Stoneware are of the best quality. The finish is flawless and I would highly recommend this crock. I hope this helps!

All that I can say is just keep it straight in the bowl. I use mine all the time for scrambling eggs. Works for me.

I have not used it by itself to make "scrambled eggs". However, when I make tofu scramble, I add a teaspoon of this and 1/4 cup of water, and it helps make the tofu taste like eggs.

Haven't tried it for eggs, but may not work right unless boiled to death & even then. The blades of the Joie are thick & close together. Good for slices of strawberries & the like, but may just mash eggs to a pulp. There's a reason egg slicers are wires & not blades.

I have only used it for carrots but I imagine zucchini or small cucumbers might work. For the results you get with the carrots alone, it is well worth the price.

I would NOT use this great product on copper. I wouldn't use any type of scrubber on copper. If you notice copper bottom pots are usually worn off by scrubbing them. Plated silver, same thing. Be very gentle with plated items and soft metal. I've noticed that raw egg will cause a stain mark on copper, and raw egg will tarnish my silver; at least for one washing.

I only use mine for making custard so only use a wooden spoon. Although I don't have direct experience with it, I would never think to use a wire whisk or beaters in the porcelain pot. I wouldn't want to take the chance.

The primary purpose I use this device for is making sauces in hot pans. I use other tools for items like you are describing. The right tool for the right job is important. Less grief when employed. There is a small chopping device and a whisk. These are light-weight and I don't use them. The stainless-steel blender attachment is worth it weight in hot liquids...soups, hot sauces, etc. I hope this will help your decision.

I came across a vegan page and it has a couple recipes for eggnog that the vegg egg yolk is used. :)

I use large eggs; sometimes a bit squishes out the sides, but it doesn't affect the finished product. You could probably use medium, but def not extra large.

I use them for deviled eggs all of the time with a large star tip - I'm actually on the site today to buy some more for that very purpose. The bag doesn't matter at all - you just need a big enough tip to handle any lumps going through.

Haven't tried scrambled, but I am sure it could do the job. Just whip them into a scrambled state before you pour them in (2 MEDIUM eggs is the capacity--I do 1 full large egg and 2 yolks--so I'll have a heart attack--big deal. I already have cancer, so I'm eating anything I can digest!). I cook grease-free fried eggs every day, and it's great. For medium texture yolk, cook 30 seconds, then 20 seconds. 50 seconds all together cooks it dry. Cook on a napkin or plate to avoid eggs that leak out becoming cooked to your microwave. You'll hear some popping (especially on non-scrambled eggs) but that's just the yolk popping. I think that's why this was invented--to prevent exploding eggs on the ceiling of your microwave. I suspect that scrambling would take about the same cooking time--do some tests--you can tell I have (LOL!) Absolutely NOTHING sticks to this thing--no spray pam required, but I use it for the little bit of flavor it imparts. Finished product comes out EXACTLY the size and shape of a regular slice of bread. It's a pricey item, but well worth the convenience and FUN--buy a couple of them to rotate if there is more than one person in your household.

Oh I'm sorry --- I have not tried to do cabbage. It is marvelous on cheese and to make deviled egg sandwiches (can do the eggs and the pickles together to make fantastic mixture), but I have not done cabbage. To me it is a 'must have' kitchen appliance.
