Question

Silicone egg-poachers. I just bought two from Sur La Table today (Jim needed a protected knife to take fruit and snacks to work) and they’re in flower shapes from http://www.siliconezone.com. Their site doesn’t ask one for questions.

Can I poach two eggs at a time in the poacher? I’m thinking of disastrous results in the microwave because egg yolks tend to explode as they’re encapsulated.

If anyone knows, please tell me before I wash and use them. Otherwise they can always be a lovely gift, if you get my meaning. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. Say no more. Dee

  1. Sur La Table’s buyer confirmed you can poach two eggs at once in the SiliconeZone Poach Pod.

  2. What about microwaving? I don’t want any explosions. Bacon in the microwave is great and saves time, but eggs, as I recall from the original Jean Andersen book, are tricky to “nuke.” Dee
