Before using your Egg Cooker, clean the entire unit according to the cleaning instructions. Wash all loose parts in warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry. Do not immerse egg cooker base in water.

You can poach up to 3 eggs or hard-cook or soft-cook up to 7 eggs. Cooking times will vary depending on the size of the egg. To get the best results, use the measuring cup included with the egg cooker which has water level markings to use as a guide. These amounts are approximate and can be varied to suit individual preferences. Use less water for softer cooked eggs and more water for harder cooked eggs.

TO POACH EGGS:

1.Place the egg cooker base on a dry, level surface. Use the medium cooked water level markings on the measuring cup to determine the amount of water for the number of eggs being cooked. Example: For 1 poached egg fill water to the 7 mark on the measuring cup; for 2 poached eggs, fill water to the 6 mark; for 3 poached eggs, fill water to the 5 mark. Note: The more eggs you are poaching the more water you should use.

2.With the switch set to “OFF,” pour the recommended amount of cold water into the electric base. Place the cooking rack into the base.

3.Lightly butter or oil the poaching cups to be used. Place the poaching pan on top of the cooking rack in the egg cooker base. ALWAYS PLACE THE POACHING PAN ON THE COOKING RACK. Be sure to position the poaching pan onto the cooking rack so that it is level. Break one egg into each cup.

4.Place the cover on the egg cooker base and plug the appliance into a 120-volt, AC electrical outlet. Turn the switch to “ON.” The “ON” light will glow, indicating the cooking process has begun. Note: Do NOT remove the cover from the base while the eggs are cooking. An audible alert will sound when the eggs are ready, after approximately 5 to 8 minutes. Turn the switch to “OFF.” Unplug cord from electrical outlet. Use hot pads or oven mitts to remove the cover and poaching pan. Slide the eggs out of the cups with a smooth-edged utensil. Serve immediately to prevent overcooking.
