I got one of thoe Eggtastic ceramic MW cookers and am looking for recipes
beyond the srambled egg recipe included.

I tried Google but eggtastic or egg-tastic seems to be a generic name for
all egg recipes = in pans, etc. No luck finding anything but a potential
YouTube video but my system is too slow for videos. Can anyone provide a
link for plain old printed recipes for this device?

TIA

I hope you'll report back here, I saw the ads and it looks pretty cool.

I'd be interested to know how it does on poached/soft boiled eggs too.

Egg-tastic is a brand name. Type this into Google: "Eggtastic
recipe" and the two choices that pop up are "guide" or "book" (which
have different hits). Go for it Ken!

I think you'd be happier using an egg coddler.

You can even coddle eggs in a mason jar. Fancy that!

That I DO have - nice tip.

I confess to still using an earlier iteration of this (does 2 eggs) and
it is at best adequate. Very hard to get consistent results.

You are retired, but still too lazy to cook eggs properly. No decent
excuse for a cook would cook eggs in a microwave.

Ken has never made any claims about being a good cook or even much of
a cook. The easier it is, the better he likes it. Bryan has been
dumpster diving, so we know where his taste is buried and he's not on
solid ground when he tries to criticize anyone for anything in this

I tried it the first time yesterday for lunch. Two eggs and a little
salt. Came out rather 'tough' and dry. I cooked according to package
directions. I was careful not to overcook, just long enough to solidify
the runny egg mixture. Came out not creamy as I expected. Next time I'll
add a bit of milk. Hope it comes out better. I was disappointed but am
willing to give it a few trys before I give up.

Also found it difficult to remove the egg scraps from the cooker when I
washed it.

I had hoped for a very quick easy way to make a couple of scrambled eggs
when I wasn't hardly hungry and didn't feel like 'cooking'.

I have, on at least three prior occasions, written posts that delve into
the “alleged” lurid past of one of our former presidents, George Herbert
Walker Bush (GHWB), the current but ailing patriarch of the Bush Family
Dynasty – I refer to them as the Bush Family Crime Syndicate, certainly
not in terms of endearment – but rather more like the Mafia Godfather
who prepares his sons to take over the family business upon his death.
This particular post references an article by Stew Webb, a contributor
of Veterans Today.

In his life-time, George H. W. Bush (GHWB) has controlled every
clandestine (hidden from view) and secret organization/operation within
the arsenal of the United States government as either 1) Director of the
CIA, 2) Vice President to Ronald Reagan (who was an unwitting puppet to
the Bush controlled cabal – GHWB secretly gave Reagan poisons that
hastened his fall into Alzheimer’s Disease and evidence suggests he
helped plan Reagan’ attempted assassination by John Hinckley, whose
family were close friends of the Bush family – a coincidence?) and 3)
ultimately as President of the United States before Bill Clinton took
office.

Coming back to this. I just watched the ad and read some reviews.
Humm! Although it is not for me, it's not actully a terrible device!
There's a book someplace for 10$ with recipes but I suspect any decent
omlete sort of recipe will do.

By volume it holds 4 eggs. Reduce volume of egg to accomodate other
things like cheese or mushrooms or whatever you like. Key bad design
point is no handle and it's hot so need to use a mitton to snag it back
out.

I may show it to my husband who'd probably rather rinse this out
quickly some mornings as opposed to grabbing a frying pan when he just
wants to make 2 eggs with a little ham and milk. Might appeal to him.

If I were on travel with only a hotel microwave, it would work for me
too.

I look at it and it's just an alternative cooking device. What you put
in it, will determine if it's a good food out of it.

Hi Ken,


Looks like from what I looked up, you may have the microwave power set
a bit high for it? If your's isnt adjustable, reduce the time back a
bit.

Adding milk or water (and stirring well with a fork) will fluff better.

For the egg scraps, from what I saw 2 answers. Those things that look
like a puffball of sponge bits would fit perfect. They are 1$ store
stuff. Swish swish and done.

Also, looks like you'd dump the egg fast to a plate and fill container
with water before eating, to soak (then cleanup would be a snap). It's
waiting to fill with water until after you eat that made it hard
probably? You can do the 'swish swish' with the cleaner later, just
fill with water in the sink and go eat them cleanup later.

Enjoy!

Why don't you give coddled eggs a try? You don't even need a special
egg coddler, use a mason jar.
http://lifehacker.com/poach-eggs-perfectly-in-a-mason-jar-1605260852
If you want them scrambled, scramble them first, coddle them with
butter - giving it enough time to firm up but not over cook to a hard
boiled texture. You could try milk (I like cream), butter and a few
seconds less time for your microwave eggs.

Scrambled eggs cooked in a microwave will always be a fail.
I tried them a few times.
You don't need a nifty eggtastic container, just put in a bowl.
The microwave will overcook them every time and the cooked on
egg is NOT so easy to clean. No soaking and sponge will get it
all off. You will need a green scrubby pad or Brillo to clean.

Best scrambled eggs are done in a pan and just about as quick
as some infomertial gimmick container.

Scramble your eggs in a bowl, add them to a hot pan that includes
melted butter. Don't cook on high but on medium. Stir constantly
as it cooks. Good scrambled eggs need to constantly scrambled
even while cooking. Take off and plate while they still look a
bit underdone as they will continue to cook for a bit.

You will never cook a decent egg in a microwave.

Again I will say, microwaved scrambled eggs will always be a fail.
To score, you need to keep scrambling them as they cook.

Ah, but you haven't seen the commercial, have you? When the guy dumps
the eggs out on the plate the inside of the Eggtastic looks clean as a
whistle! We all know eggs just aren't that easy. :)

Oh no, I call BULLSHIT on that one, unless you like rubbery eggs.

The eggs should be added to a non-stick skillet over LOW heat with
melted butter to coat the cooking surface fully.

Gently roll the pan, allowing the eggs to form the equivalent of a crepe.

Keep on low heat and then very gently lift the eggs with a spatula and
roll the remaining liquid eggs gently, side to side, then lift and roll
again.

Remove from the pan when just barely done, gently to serving plate.

The eggs will be supremely moist but also cooked.

Bothering eggs for the whole time they cook makes them rubbery.

No you rally do NOT!

Excess scrambling makes for rubbery eggs.

Let them form a crepe/omelet over the bottom of the pan, then lift
gently - always over low heat.

Disturb them as little as possible and remove to plate when just cooked.

They may seem that way to you until you try this method.

You need enough heat to melt the butter and coat the pan, after that -
almost none.

If you think about it logically, bothering the eggs can only break the
curds up and make them tougher as more sides of the eggs hit the hot pan
and dry.

By allowing the eggs to gently and slowly cook crepe style you reduce
that process and allow a far more gentle saute which retains moisture,
instead of losing it.

Give it a try some time, You will not be disappointed.

Look up Jacques Pepin's egg videos on line. He shows multiple
techniques just for scrambles depending on the texture and
"curd" you want from the finished product. I posted links here
before but it was totally drowned out and ignored due to
whatever current massive brouhaha was going on between Julie's
sycophants and victims.

Scrambled eggs can take many forms, if you like them moist and
fluffy the best method is constant agitation. However I use a
hot pan, not medium, they just don't spend all that much time in
the pan.

I've see the hot [pan method from ATK, and it may be scientifically sound.

But from experience and living in an exceedingly dry climate I've had
enough overcooked scrambled eggs to have sussed out my own faultless
technique.

I encourage ALL to try it, take your time, let the gentle heat and ample
butter do the trick.

Worrying eggs constantly will always lead to rubbery results.

And in that I am unanimous!

I put water in it long before I washed it. Used one of those sponges with
a rough side. Works for most other things. Suspect the eggs stick better

I ate them directly out of the cooker. That's what instructions show.

DEAR FAT ASS

good morning fat ass
how will your day go?
will you be stared at like an enourmous blob?
or be taunted and teased all day long?

but you will sure show them

you live to eat and dont eat to live
well look at that fat ass
a greasy cheese burger streaming down your lips and chin

you are a worthless excuse for a human
no one wants to see fat
lock yourself inside your room
until your thin and flat



you would rather some one say
fuck her anorexic ass
than fuck you
you fat fat ass


words hurt as much as the weight
they will be with you forever
that extra baggage you can change
show them you can do something

No one wants to see a fat girl cry
tears of grease and blubber
you will no longer be the funny fat girl
you will be just as cool as any other

slide your finger down your throat
when you dream of grease and junk
the calories will fade away
down the toilet with one flush

dont eat today
you will prove them right
that is something
you just can't do

show them they dont
have control over everything
your weight
is something you do

Loose it all fat ass
I want to see coller bones
and down right thin

dont cry when you become dizzy
just know that it will help you in the end

You can feel good about yourself fat ass
you just have to learn control
your punishment is a life full of pain
and tears of grease and fried stuff

thin is the way you have always wanted to be
well you have a long journey to get there
but change your life
you fuck of blubber

run run fat ass
let that fat ass shake
no one wants to see that shit
better run in your back yard instead

skinny
be thin
fat ass
be fat
when weighing out your options
which do you like better than fat?


its not lie fat ass
you have let yourself go
its time to buckle down
and crack those calories away


when it is all said and done
you will be worthy
you will feel alive again
see thin is the way to be

and you are just a fat ass with no control again.

Not that they admit to. That's the beauty of television infomercial
products. They can and do edit to their hearts content to come up with
a minute or two long sales pitch.

Personally, when I saw the commercial I thought the eggs they showed
were way more cooked than I'd like them. They reminded me of something
you'd find in a hotel breakfast bar after they've been sitting for about
an hour. No thanks.

I like nice soft fluffy scrambled eggs. I know how to make them nice
and soft without a special gadget. :)

The best scrambled eggs are cooked in a double boiler... half stick
butter, a dozen well beaten eggs, stirred gently but constantly with a
wooden spoon... served before fully cooked... creamy and luscious.

Trust me on this, low heat, let them form into a crepe, then slowly lift
and gently separate.

Constant stirring makes the curds more rubbery.

Try it once and see.

You should lift and separate the eggs maybe a total of 3-4 times only.

Now that you are reponding responsibly, I'll respond to this. Your
method is more like making an omlet. Oh no, I said omlet.

Constant stirring scrambled eggs on medium heat will NOT make them
rubbery. Cooking too long will do that.

With all due respect to your method, try mine sometime.

Yes it is, precisely right.

As such the low heat keeps the bottom from crisping, but the lift, roll
and separate motion yield large fluffy moist curds.

> rubbery. Cooking too long will do that.

It reduces the size of the curds every time, and that is what makes the
rubbery.

You won't know this unless or until you try my method for comparison.

>

I graduated from yours.

I developed mine a few years ago and have never looked back.

I also like to add a little bit of water to my eggs and a pinch of salt.

The heavy cream, or even half and half is just a bit to watery in the
finaly product.
