Eggs And Ice Water

First...handles...

See the two handles ...one black...one white.

The while handle is newer 

and fits best on the newer corning ware.

This little white corning ware pot is older and so 

the black handle fits best on the older corning ware.

I remember when I got my first corning ware in the 60"s

that it came with black handles.

The white handles didn't show up until

corning came out with the newer designs

on their pots.

At least I didn't see them in the stores until then.

Second...steaming eggs.

Do a search on Google or YouTube

for lots of info 

about steaming and peeling eggs.

Here is what I do:

Steam for 6 minutes with lid on = soft boiled egg

Steam for 10 minutes with lid on = hard boiled egg

To make eggs easy to peel.

After steaming put egg in ice cube/water

for just half a minute or so if you want hot/warm eggs.

Leave the steamed egg in the ice cube/water

until cold if you want cold eggs.

I tap my eggs with the back of a spoon to crack them.

If I am going to make a bunch of cold eggs.

I crack them before I put them in the ice water.

I start peeling on the round end.

The fresher the egg the harder it is to peel.

Since I have been buying store bought eggs

I have noticed they are easier to peel.

I do buy pasture eggs when they are available.

No work on the freezer.

Maybe next week?

I did do some work clearing up my sewing area.

Yay! I can see the top of the table.
