How do you make these? Do you boil egg first then you put them in the mold?

You boil the eggs as usual. Once they're done, peel the egg, place it in the mold while still hot, and place the whole thing in cold water for about 10 minutes.

Yes, you boil the egg first and peel them while they are still hot, place them in the mold, snap it closed then put the whole thing in ice water to chill. Hope this helps

Yes, you boil first, then lock it in while hot, and let it cool in the mold.

Boil eggs first, peel shell ,egg should still be warm . Place in mold and run under cold water. Uses Xl eggs you might want to let them sit a bit before taking them out of mold.

Yes! You boil the eggs, then run them under cool water until just cooled enough to peel. Then place in mold and finish cooling in the refrigerator. I would guess a hour or two to cool completely. I have a full dozen molds so I can do a whole dozen eggs at once. They keep in the fridge for atleast a few days in the mold. Hope that helps :)

Not according to the directions, however, I don't see why you can't. But the fact is, unless one of your eggs breaks, all you really need to do is give the two plastic pieces a thorough rinse in hot water.After I cook eggs, while the tray is still very hot, I take a wad of wet paper towels and clean the plate with it (being careful, because it's very hot). Every 10 uses or so, I put vinegar and water in the plate as directed, and let it boil for 10 minutes. Everything is always sparkly clean. I LOVE this thing! We use it all the time.

I dipped mine holding them with tongs in a bowl of hot water that I heated in my hotshot after it sat for a few minutes, (not boiling temp but really hot) and only held them in the water until I noticed them get limp/loose. I did one tray at a time and sucked them to the roof/bottom of my mouth and then bit down. After they formed I put them in a bowl of cold water to make sure the form stayed. I use them with a whitening gel that I bought on Amazon that is 10% formula and they work great.

Place the eggs in the cups after you have lightly buttered each cup. Add about 1/2 water to a 10" fry pan that you have a lid for. Burner on med. high bring to a boil, add Norpro Poacher to the pan, cover and cook for about 3 min. Do not let the water boil to supper bubbly. Check eggs for doneness, yolk should be still soft and whites cooked. Will take practice to learn cooking time as each stove is different with heat controls. Add to a toasted English muffin with very thin deli turkey and ham slices, top with egg and lemony hollandaise sauce for eggs benedict, yummy. I also allow my eggs to become close to room temp before using. Hope this helps. Takes Practice. Place the eggs in the cups after you have lightly buttered each cup.

yes! In fact that is how we normally make them. Works just fine! use just 1 large egg and scramble before pouring into the cooker.

I put about a 1/4 inch of water in the pan. Spray the egg cups with cooking spray,put it together and heat to boiling. Remove lid, add eggs reduce heat to medium low, put lid on . Will onlyttake a couple of minutes. Hope this helps.

Yes, I have made eggs in them (with cheese and crumbled up bacon - they are yummy! Just don't overcook them, scramble the egg with milk, add cheese, pepper and salt and pre-cooked bacon broken into pieces - 30-45 seconds if egg is still runny on the bottom, flip it and cook for 5-10 more seconds. Fill about 1/2 full). These silicone cups are the same quality as the "Bake it in a Cup" Books (Fun recipes for microwave options too) by Julia Myall. They should work just fine with cupcakes too. I like them best because of their thickness and great color.

I use tongs to lift them out and flip the egg onto a plate. Use a set for each side.

first, only use 3 eggs. Do not overfill. Turn it on, close lid and wait for it to finish. simple.

HI Lori, They are really simple to make and you use them in place of cupcakes. I bake a cake mix on a jelly roll pan lined with parchment paper. then I use one of the push pop to cut out the circle cakes. then you layer cake, frosting, cake, frosting....I sometimes add fruit and sprinkles. and then put on the lid. Ta da....you have a cake pop. They are great to take somewhere because they can't get messed up! They were a big hit at the party!!

I rinse the inside, pour out water leaving the inside wet. Cracks egg into cooker, microwave 20 SECONDS, rest 20 seconds, then cook another 20 seconds. Slip egg out of cooker and enjoy. Some salt and pepper before cooking. I usually wait and let each person add their own seasoning. Hope this helps

I refrigerate them in the bag they came in. Take out what you need and let them warm before use. I dip them in clonex solution before use

Hi Ericha, yes this molds are perfect for sugar skulls and that's what I am planning to do with them. How to make the sugar: 1 egg yolk, 2 cups white sugar, vanilla. Mix your egg white until foamy. Add sugar and mix with a wooden spoon. Cut your molds so you can put them together and tight them up with a rubber band. Fill them up with the sugar mix and wait for it to completely dry (3-4 hours, don't put them in the fridge) To decorate: beat two egg whites until foamy add 2 cups to powder sugar and 4 drops of lime juice, separate and add coloring, put inside icing baggies or zip-bags (put tape on a corner and cut a small part on the tip) decorate them.

I rinse them immediately after use, then wash in the dishwasher with the spout pulled open. Then air dry before putting them away. We've had no mold problems.

Hi Mary. The instructions for both asembly and and a suggested-recipe come with the pan. You will have to experiment with milk and egg mixture. I use boxed egg mixture rather than going to the trouble of starting with regular eggs,hope this helps. You may have a friend who knows about omlets.

the included instructions do not provide directions for poaching! I made a hard boiled poached egg this way: i cracked an egg into the little plastic bowl ( provided), set it on top of the egg rack used for steaming in the shell, added water to the "hard" line level on the fill cup, and turned it on. Came out fine. Ive never had a poached egg before, so i assume it was good, lol. i dont know if you should take out the steamer tray or not - i didnt.

Yes, it is very easy. Do just as the other users indicated. If for some reason you happen to have a problem (which virtually never happens), just leave the mold at room temperature for a few minutes or float the mold in warm water for about a minute (with both lids still on) and it will come right out.
