No water other than I had to wash it.

This one was at 40 seconds. I was warned that each microwave is different so you have to learn yours.

These pictures came up out of order. Operator error!

Handmade by a guy on the local art tour today. I may have to get another from him so I have one at home or work. Sorta fun and I like to back my local artists/craftsmen!

And I should add that I didn't believe him but it is as close to non stick as you can get!

While I like to make scrambled eggs in my cast iron when my kids were young and the wife and I were working I found that I could make scrambled eggs in a Correlle soup bowl and they weren't bad but not as good as pan made.

One day my dad arrived when I was trying to get the kids fed as they had school but I was off/however I'd worked until 1AM and didn't have much sleep.

I offered to fix dad some bacon and eggs/I'd baked a bunch of bacon ahead and only needed to nuke them and he said sure.

You should have seen the look of displeasure when I put the eggs in the microwave. 60 seconds later they were done and 10 seconds later the bacon was done and I'd toasted the bread and had it all ready for him.

He looked at me with a look of great doubt in his eyes. He took one bite of the eggs and said; "Not bad, not bad at all" and consumed his breakfast.

I couldn't believe it when my mother told me that dad had her fixing scrambled eggs in the microwave!

The cast iron gets them crispy but a poached egg is different.

This works as far s poaching goes.

That is unless you work for the DNR.

In the past when I wanted a poached egg, it was the hot water in a pot on the stove with at touch of white vinegar or a bit of white wine stirred into a swirl then the egg gently lowered into the water to cook undisturbed, then drained and kept warm to put on the muffin with some sauce.

Yes-- two very different ways of cooking eggs.

NOTE: MY scrambled eggs done in the cast iron are Never crispy. I was simply pointing out how things that used to be cooked on the stove can now be cooked in the microwave. I hope all now understand

Crispy or maybe a little crunchy on the edges. A microwave can't do that.

A poached egg doesn't have that so it can copy it.

Today was men's health antioxidant breakfast. Cinnamon walnut power cakes cooked in virgin coconut oil, with Nutella,blueberry and mango on the side and Greek coffee.Everything including the coffee is antioxidant laden or anti inflammation. When the pancakes were cooking the cinnamon really perfumed the air nicely.

I have a Breakfast issue a couple of years ago I was chasing the Perfect French Omelette now it is Perfect Soft Boiled eggs...


This morning was pretty close
