MacKenzie Posted January 19, 2020 Report Posted January 19, 2020 Another PC egg, this time hard boiled. Love the nice texture of the PC egg. 1 Quote
SmallBBQr Posted January 19, 2020 Report Posted January 19, 2020 We make a weeks worth of hard boiled eggs every Sunday using the Instant Pot, but this would work with any pressure cooker too. So simple....1 cup water, eggs (as many as you want to fit it) on a steamer rack for 8 minutes at high pressure. Throw immediately into an ice bath and done. They slide right out of the shell... 4 Quote
MacKenzie Posted January 19, 2020 Report Posted January 19, 2020 Did another pressure cooked egg today, it takes less than 10 mins. to do it. Quote
tony b Posted January 19, 2020 Report Posted January 19, 2020 Picture perfect, MacKenzie. Not a speck of green anywhere in sight on that yolk. 1 Quote
tony b Posted January 20, 2020 Report Posted January 20, 2020 Y'all got me going on the egg thing, so I did these in the InstaPot for 8 minutes, quick release and into an ice bath. 2 Quote
MacKenzie Posted January 20, 2020 Report Posted January 20, 2020 Well, don't they just look perfect. 1 Quote
tony b Posted January 21, 2020 Report Posted January 21, 2020 Used the trick of cooking older eggs so that they peeled easily. Quote
Tucker Posted January 21, 2020 Report Posted January 21, 2020 using the steam method, regardless of "age" the eggs give up the shells easily and w/o loss of the egg white. 1 Quote

Going to try your method (just need to find my veggie steamer) to see how it works with fresh eggs compared to my egg cookers........... that are basically steamers also. Fresh eggs in my electric egg cookers are a disaster to peel. Looking forward to trying it!!! Quote
MacKenzie Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 I have found the PC eggs to be much easier to peel but not 100% with very fresh eggs. Quote
Syzygies Posted January 23, 2020 Report Posted January 23, 2020 Sorry, any title with "egg cooker" in it makes me think of Dr. Seuss. 1 2 Quote
Jon B. Posted January 24, 2020 Author Report Posted January 24, 2020 (edited) @Tucker Tried Tucker's steam method last night. Cooked 10 eggs for the test. They were not super fresh........"best if used by" date of Jan 31st. Found my veggie steamer, added water to the bottom of the steamer, brought the pan to full boil (was also cooking in the new pressure cooker @MacKenzie made me buy 😁) 10 eggs in and covered. I cooked/steamed these for 12 minutes. Into the ice water for 5 minutes. They turned out very nice. Very easy to peel, soft yoke, firm but tender whites. Only one egg gave me some trouble coming out of the shell. With a taller pan, could very easily cook 18 eggs at one time. Might have to retire the electric egg cookers!! Thanks for posting Tucker!!!!! PS - I cleaned the stove after looking at these pictures Edited January 24, 2020 by Jon B. 4 1 Quote
