Hello, everyone, I am a gourmet blogger who loves to eat and drink. Recently, the first thing to do when you get up every morning is not to wash your face and brush your teeth, but to cook an egg for everyone at home. The practice of boiling eggs is very simple. Wash them, put some water in the pot, put the eggs in and cook them on fire. However, many people say that it is not easy to do such a simple thing as boiling eggs. Why? Because the eggs are easy to break when boiled, and then the egg liquid will flow out, and the boiled eggs will fail. If you are lucky, you can still eat eggs, and if you are unlucky, you will have half an egg left. So why do eggs break easily? Revealing the truth of breaking the shell
First, the egg shell is easy to break when cooking eggs, most of which are caused by the impact of eggs. The egg shell is very fragile and easily broken. With a gentle impact, the egg shell is easily cracked. With the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, the egg shell will be broken. Whether it is the impact between eggs or the direct impact between eggs and the pot, it is easy to die and cause the egg shell to crack. When cooking eggs, it is necessary to reduce the impact of eggs, so that the shell of eggs is not easy to crack.
Many people boil a few eggs and add a lot of water. When the water is boiling, the eggs will move with the boiling water, and if they are not careful, they will collide and break their shells. So when we boil eggs, we don't need to put too much water, just drown most of them. Cover the eggs when cooking to increase the pressure. Eggs don't break easily unless they roll around.
second, when hot and cold meet, the egg shell can't stand the stimulation and it is easy to break. This is related to the way eggs are preserved. Eggs in spring are not easy to go bad, just need to be stored at room temperature. When cooking, just put the eggs in the pot when they are cold. Some people will wait for the water to boil, and it is easy to break the shell at this time. In summer, eggs are easy to go bad and need to be preserved at low temperature. Many people will choose to put them in the refrigerator. Take them out in advance before cooking, soak them in water at room temperature, and then cook them in cold water. Relatively speaking, the chance of breaking eggs in summer is slightly higher.
third, the problem of the egg itself. When some people cook eggs, because they don't see if there are cracks in them, they wash them and put them in the pot to cook. At this time, due to the heat expansion, the egg liquid will burst the eggshell and look like a boiled one. Of course, this situation is relatively rare.
Boiled eggs are easy to break. Most of the factors are caused by the "collision" of eggs, and a few are their own influence. When you cook eggs, you can cook them without too much water. Generally, the time of boiling eggs is controlled well, which has little to do with the amount of water. When boiled eggs, the eggs are boiled for 3 minutes to 5 minutes, most of which are delicious eggs, commonly known as: raw eggs; Boil for 8 to 1 minutes, and you can usually cook it. Of course, the eggs stored in the refrigerator should be extended a little bit.
