Exactly when is the soda bicarb added?
good
it's added in when you're going to boil the eggs with water (the level of water is about 2 inches above the eggs).
I believe its baking soda!
to the boiling water
This is very helpful!
good,this video is wonderful
nanana this is bull
I boil 30 eggs at a time so how much baking soda
OMFG @ oneblondeboy69. About a bottle full :P
I would recommend that you lower your entire soda sack into the boiling water be sure your doin's are exactly two inches below the water's surface.
Nice technic! I never saw it before, it good to know general chemistry when cooking then. oneblondeboy69 just add the whole baking soda bottle! I guess the eggs will explode or something like that... lol
thx4sharing
baking soda? what about vinegar? Acid from vinegar, will dissolve the carbonate in the eggshell, not a base like baking soda.
Ew so now you have saliva all over them, no thanks XD
Great hygiene. Is there a video on here about how to cure mass food poisoning from tainted egg salad at one of Tim's dinner parties?
I do this without having to add anything to the water, works just as well as it is.
I sure as hell wouldn't want to eat any eggs that someone else has had their mouth on and blown germs on!!!
