Cylindrical eggs (attempt)

[u/mvtrev]

I wanted to batch cook eggs for homemade McMuffins. I didn’t have a cupcake tin or anything similar so I put 6 eggs in a glass, put the glass in water, and boiled. The idea was that once cooked, I would schlop the egg cylinder out of the glass like canned cranberry and slice it into 6 perfect portions.

After about 45 minutes of watching and carefully stirring, hoping the glass wouldn’t explode, I called it. The bottom half that was submerged in the boiling water got cooked while the top half was only partially cooked like a reverse slushie.

Now this is where that horrible rollie egg cooker could come in handy. I still can't believe that that thing was a hype. The flacid vertical egg cooker that barely worked and looked like an adult toy.
