How to Cook the Perfect Hard-Boiled Egg

This Flash application from the University of Oslo figures out the optimal time to cook a hard-boiled egg based on four factors: the egg's circumference, the level of doneness you want the egg to be, the start temperature of the egg, and the elevation you're cooking at. Now every egg you cook will be perfect—as long as you measure its circumference and temperature, and know how many meters above sea level you are. (And to think all this time I was just boiling my eggs for seven minutes, give or take a few seconds.) The website is in Norwegian, but for a scientific explanation of cooking hard-boiled eggs in English go to khymos.org. [via Lifehacker] Related: Nick Kindelsperger on...

Bissinger's Chocolate Inside a Real Hen's Egg for Easter

The St. Louis-based confectionery Bissinger's makes something called "the ultimate egg" for Easter. An actual hen's egg shell around a chocolate praline center. Except, wait. How did the chocolate get shoved in there? Eerily, there are no cracks or signs of entrance. As the company asks on their website, "Which came first? The chocolate or the egg?"

Cooking with Kids: Scrambled Egg Smackdown with Tyler Florence

My daughter and I eat a lot of scrambled eggs for breakfast, and I make them over medium-high heat and get them in and out of the pan as fast as possible. But according to Food Network host Tyler Florence, whose son Hayden (19 months) is also an egg aficionado, I’m doing it wrong. “My son, he loves scrambled eggs,” said Florence when I spoke to him on the phone recently. “Farm-fresh organic eggs, a little bit of whole milk, two tablespoons of butter and a nonstick pan. Cook eggs at a low temperature, because the temperature reacts with the protein in eggs and makes them very rubbery. Light, fluffy, billowy eggs, that is achieved with a low, slow cooking...

Regular Eggs Are 'No Harm to Health'

Photograph from malias on Flickr A recent study proved that eating too many eggs doesn't necessarily cause high blood cholesterol and heart disease.

Disney Eggs Are Completely Pointless But Kids Will Probably Want Them

Nothing is safe from Disney's grasp: Disney Farm Fresh Eggs are eggs with drawings of Disney characters' heads printed on them. That's it. Crack the egg and the Disney fun is gone, unless you have a Mickey-shaped egg mold, in which case you can use that to stretch the Disney theme and fry an egg that will barely resemble the plastic-looking one in the commercial. StitchKingdom.com points out that Japan has been sticking Mickey's head onto eggs for years, not that that makes it any less pointless. Not sure what the manufacturer's price is, but if you do find yourself addicted to eggs decorated with images of Mickey and friends, you can buy loads of coupons on eBay. Save...
