I usually boil eggs by putting them together with the rice i’m cooking. wait for the rice to boil over and put the eggs in right before covering them.

J. – oho! I like what you call “tamatamagohan” too. Just as the rice cooker switches to “keep warm”, I scoop out a bowl of rice, over which I crack a large (better with double-yolked ones) egg, sprinkle some non-iodized sea salt, and mix like there’s no tomorrow. My mom hates it when I do this – for disturbing the rice’s “in-in” process or the threat of salmonella, I am not sure which. =P

PITS – here’s how I poach an egg: using a relatively small but deep pot, fill up to half and bring up to a simmer (never a rolling boil). Using a spoon, create a whirlpool and crack an egg into the vortex. I like my eggs barely cooked (so the yolk is like lava when I poke it), so I fish it out of the water with a slotted spoon after 2-3 mins. Repeat as necessary =)

One tip I have learned is to use old eggs and not fresh eggs. It doesn’t matter if they come straight from the fridge. Just put in a pan of water, heat until you see it boil. Turn off the fire, cover:

4-5 minutes for soft boiled eggs
10-12 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.

Have trouble peeling the eggs? Use a spoon to go between the shell and the egg. You will be amazed how easy it is to peel the egg. This I learned from Korean school girls who would peel eggs this way.

Risa…please go back to MM’s Pancake with Guava honey post. I already posted it there for Alilay. Naku, Risa…make a double batch for I can guarantee you that if you have kids or even grown-ups, they will ask you to make Pancakes even at night! I make them the night before now and let it sit in the cooler. Next morning, do not swirl or mix the batter. JUST SCOOP it as is with a sandok for 4 inch pancakes cooked in a non stick skillet. Smear the bottom with just 1 tiny kurot of butter I like my panckaes with that typical big browned hole-y stencil on the surace. If I don’t smear that butter on the skillet, it will just be plainly brown albeit it still tastes excellent. My son’s friends sleeps over 2 a week just to have pancakes at our house!!!! The recipe calls for very, very soft cream cheese thinned out with cream or Creamo and buttermilk as well. I you do not have buttermilk, whole milk with lemon juice added will do.

hubby surprised me with 16 chicks and 1 hen about 1 month ago. since then we have 1 fresh greenish colored egg c/o Harriet daily (that is what we named the hen). she is free range and is allowed to roam the yard. we have lost 4 chicks since then to “weird” circumstances!!! am so looking forward to having more fresh eggs daily once the chicks grow. also have a pair of pheasants, still contemplating what to do with them. nothing beats fresh eggs!!
