The newer ones are much safer, so long as they are cleaned and maintained ... Roonas Send a noteboard - 28/12/2011 03:42:15 AM
This may sound silly, but my grandma had one.. and it worked great. If not for the safety concerns, I bet that everyone would still have one.


I've heard horror stories of them exploding on people etc ... but I truly believe alot of that can be attributed to Operator Error.

So stoked to try out a pot roast tomorrow ... with a whole day off to enjoy I may do two or three meals just for experimentation sake ...

Did your gradma have any particular dishes she used to specialize in? I am settled that pot roast and corned beef will be mainstays for me, but I am looking to branch out in the recipe department ...

Hope your holidays were pleasant, Kel, good to see ya ;)

Did you get your egg separator? Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 04:38:04 PM 1007 Views
I did! Nate - 27/12/2011 05:08:36 PM 1084 Views
Oh. Well it's probably for the best then. Sareitha Sedai - 27/12/2011 05:17:44 PM 899 Views
Ha! Just make sure you wash your eggs before cracking them. Vivien - 27/12/2011 05:33:52 PM 960 Views
Use caution when washing eggs... Avendesora - 27/12/2011 08:50:37 PM 1051 Views
What? Why would you wash an egg? I've never heard of this. *NM* Tim - 27/12/2011 11:33:57 PM 613 Views
This is news to me too. Nate - 28/12/2011 12:30:00 AM 1030 Views
Ha, don't listen to me, I know nothing about this. Vivien - 28/12/2011 01:36:34 AM 961 Views
Aha. That makes sense. Nate - 28/12/2011 05:26:47 AM 1047 Views
That's a relief. You can't eat raw egg in this country anyway, so I don't need to change any habits. Tim - 28/12/2011 10:37:47 AM 892 Views
Is there a law? Nate - 28/12/2011 03:29:39 PM 962 Views
What I mean is that everybody considers it unsafe to eat raw eggs. Tim - 28/12/2011 06:37:17 PM 935 Views
I didn't know that. Nate - 28/12/2011 07:54:37 PM 997 Views
It is suggested in the US that you cook the yolk to solid too. Avendesora - 30/12/2011 11:58:10 AM 860 Views
That sounds ridiculously over-cautious to me. Tim - 30/12/2011 05:48:56 PM 930 Views
I love a runny yolk myself. Vivien - 30/12/2011 06:28:49 PM 754 Views
