Make an Egg; Use the Microwave

As eggs are a delicate food, cooking them in the microwave is challenging. However, developing egg recipes is an entertaining event to entail. First of all, an egg is composed of two separate, unique parts: The egg yolk and the egg white portions; the shells aren’t included in most recipes (use for compost). The yolk is very high in fat and protein. It also tends to cook faster than the egg white part; truthfully, egg whites set, while the egg yolk thickens. Therefore, there are a variety of methods that require achieving the proper execution of producing an acceptable egg recipe, when utilizing the microwave.

Most-if not all-microwavable egg recipes mandate a setting of LOW or MEDIUM. This particular technique will ensure that the egg doesn’t distort into a rubbery texture (overcooking the watery portions of the egg). Also, be sure to stop the microwave oven, while the egg dish is still slightly underdone. And standard completion includes a brief standing time, covered, in order for the food to finish cooking with stored-up heat.
