I boiled two eggs. I would have boiled more eggs, but when I asked if anyone else wanted boiled eggs, they said they did not want boiled eggs.

    Have you tried steaming eggs. Reduce the water, so it takes less time to come to a boil. The lack of submersion makes no difference to cooking time. Do cover the pot obviously.

    Quicker cooking time. I think they make for better eggs too but thats opinion based.

    Save water, save time.

      Might as well go the microwave route if time and water efficiency is the goal.

              3 minutes in most microwaves boiles water. So you can scramble an egg with water in a small container and it’ll cook it.

              Pretty useful for a quick breakfast in the breakroom right before your shift starts.
              I would test it out at home first to get the hang of it.

                Works well in leftover cup ramen broth. Stir it in, add any extra seasoning or bits, nuke it and enjoy. Makes the eggs taste like the ramen. I’m not an egg enjoyer but this tastes good.

                I mix a bit of canned tuna in with mine, it reminds me of my mother.

      I also think steamed eggs are better, and because they’re not bouncing around in a boiling pot of water they tend to stay intact better.

      Plus with a big enough steamer you can do dozens of eggs at once. Dozens!
