How can I make scrambled egg patties using egg rings? I have these metal rings that are actually English Muffin Rings, but they say you can use them as egg rings... I'd like to scramble the eggs and freeze them. But I'm not so great at making scrambled eggs fluffy enough to make decent patties. Any ideas? Thanks~ Steve G replied: "Make your scrambled eggs as usual and just before they are fully set move them to a plate add a bit of butter to your pan add the rings spoon your eggs into the rings and press slightly to fill cook for 2 minutes for them to set remove rings and plate eggs till cool."
poison ivy replied: "add a little milk to the eggs while mixing. will make them lighter and fluffier" I dont know the first thing about cooking. I bought egg rings? that you're supposed to use in the frying pan to fry your sunny side up eggs in a perfect round shape. are you supposed to use the rings to cut them in circles once they're cooked? Or crack the egg and drop it in the ring prior to cooking? It seems that the egg would have a hard time cooking cause the whites would be stacked since the ring is not so big....? Elizabeth B replied: "With egg rings you put them down and drop the eggs into them. Make sure the heat is not too high."
KT replied: "they're meant to be used in the skillet, not after the eggs are done. eggs cook so fast, the thickness doesn't make a huge difference, but you could lower the temp just slightly."
Lola replied: "You crack the egg into the ring and let it cook for a bit. Try an oven safe pan too, so you can put the pan with egg in the oven to let it cook a little bit of the top part."
M ♥ C replied: "put in skillet greesed, pour egg in and once egg sets a little remove the ring and flip the egg if you like both sides cooked"
Chuck M replied: "I agree with the other responders. You cook the egg in the ring.
May I suggest you subscribe to something like Simple & Delicious. Lots of easy recipes.
Also Taste of Home Cook Book has lots of tips for the new chef."
farmerwoman replied: "Put the egg in the ring into a pan with melted butter or margarine, Pour hot water in the pan on the outside of the ring after the bottom is cooked, then take a spatula and push the hot water over the top of the egg this will make it as if poached and the top will be cooked yet softly and white not fried or brown looking" I like poached eggs but where I live I cannot buy Teflon egg rings to break the egg into.? Can anyone give me a tip on how I can prevent the egg from breaking up when i simmer it.
To Geof I live in the Philippines. dann replied: "use your hand as a mould"
Bruce S replied: "You can actually make poached eggs without the poacher pan thing.
I've seen someone do it before you just need certain ingredients like vinegar and so on.
Found a link:"
K R replied: "The easiest thing to do is break the egg into a small bowl first. Then as your putting the egg in the pan put the bowl as close to the water as possible, you can even put the side of the bowl in the water. Vinegar helps to keep the egg from spreading all through out the pan. One cap full will do ya :D The vinegar will not flavor the egg at all :D
Good Luck"
Rachel P replied: "1 - Use fresh eggs
2 - use a deep pot of water just off boil, add a splash of vinegar
3 - Here is a link to an online class all about poaching eggs:"
Geoff the skier replied: "Where on earth do you live - no egg poachers. Can't you get one by mail order? And we managed to poach eggs long before Teflon was invented you know - smear a little butter on the poacher."
Jason N replied: "Hi, you need a deep pot, in the pot add a dash of white wine vinegar, what this does is acts as a coagulant for the egg and firms up the egg white, and also a little salt.
The reason for using the deep pot is because as the egg sinks through the water the yolk is enveloped in egg white and then once it is near ready the egg will start to surface. The shape of the egg should look almost like a tear drop.
The water temperature should be at a slow rolling boil."
Happy Cooker replied: "Just put 1/2" of water in your frying pan and bring it to the simmer stage. Break your eggs into the water. Put your toast on. When the toast is ready, so are the eggs. Splash water over yolk while cooking and I guarantee they will be perfect every time."
Deborah L replied: "In a shallow saucepan get about 4" water boiling. Break your egg in small cup or bowl. Use a spoon and swirl the water in the pan. Pour the egg in while the water is swirling and let the egg cook just until the white is opaque. Remove it from the water with a slotted spoon." Where can I find an egg ring? I'm not really sure what this would be called, but I want something that I can shape my eggs with when I put them in a skillet for breakfast.
Basically I just need a ring that is tall enough that when I crack the egg into it, it stays as a nice circle with some depth, and doesn't run in the skillet, touching other eggs.
Anyone know what I'm looking for, or where to find it? Happy Cooker replied: "Just use the ring off a preserving jar, same thing. Or a cookie cutter that is round in shape and large enough to accommodate the egg."
Nathalie K replied: "I think the closest thing I know of is a biscuit cutter,,,Or you can fashion one by using the small cans used for Tuna fish..."
rubyjosan replied: "try ikea"
methroach replied: "I don't know if you can get them commercially...but I would use a metal cookie cutter or make one using metal ribbon.
Actually, I googled "egg shaper" and found this:

Reenie from 86riverside replied: "Pampered chef sells them. Great for making english muffin sandwiches!
My uncle uses slices of onion with success! (The large outer rings.)"
CHETAK replied: "Most supermarkets have them, but I have found the egg will still seep out underneath.
See if you can get an egg poaching pan, see picture.
This is an expensive one, but you can get cheaper ones."
Nelle F replied: "What you are looking for is called an egg ring. Target has a set that comes with two egg rings and a bacon press, if breakfast is just really your thing. Williams-Sonoma also has a set of 4 for $15, which seems reasonable. Crate and Barrel sells them individually for about $4. You can search any store's web site for 'egg ring' and will likely find them elsewhere as well. Some stores also have pancake rings, again, if breakfast is your thing." How do I prevent eggs from sticking on the sides of an egg-ring that isn't non-stick? I bought one that looks real sturdy but to my dismay it wasn't non-stick. It makes the egg stick like it’s glued to the sides of the egg-ring and instead of having a perfectly shaped fried egg, I end up with one that's very difficult to remove. Melissa C replied: "Spray it with some pam or rub it with some oil it will release it better."
richards150 replied: "Use a cooking spray."
darlin12009 replied: "use non stick cooking spray, like pam. or a bit of olive oil rubbed on the egg ring"
nexteltom17 replied: "Butter also helps. Veg. Oils and Sprays work also. For a good egg pan get an unstickable one."
Lucy Bell replied: "Well rub it with oil and it should prevent it from sticking."
rob lou replied: "use butter or oil, but also don't put it into the pan until you are ready with the egg, this will keep it from getting really hot."
Annette S replied: "Try a cooking spray like Pam."
VicStevens replied: "The suggestion for greasing the inside of the ring is helpful. Also, grease the OUTSIDE of the ring, too.
Plus, cook the eggs at the LOWEST possible temperature. Too high a heat will make the protein in the egg behave like glue." Egg rings - do they work for frying nice eggs? I'm buying a George foreman grill and griddle.
The griddle is non-stick and ideal for frying eggs (no oil needed) so thought to save on mess about buying some egg rings.
With a handle so I don't burn myself.
Now should I get silicone (heard the egg doesn't cook as well??) or teflon/steel?
Some reviews say the egg simply leaks out of them, does anybody own them and would also recommend them?
Cheers
Can anyone recommend where to find them either online or high street?
Was out of luck at Tescos and Morrissons.
Can only think to try Debenhams, Marks & Spencers and Wilkisons. Sexii replied: "I find egg rings really useful. But you have to get the right ones, at lot of the times the better ones are the more expensive ones. the first set i had were rubbish and they cost me £2. i tried some that were £3.99 and these work better"
Beriadanwen[: replied: "wat egg ring?"
Heretic replied: "yup..makes great eggs for me.."
happy cooker replied: "Just use the metal ring off a pickling jar (Mason jar type). Flip it off with a fork when the egg is cooked."
Cala B replied: "Try Lakeland plastics online. I'm sure that's where mine came from. They do work quite well but I only use them if I have a lot of people for breakfast and need to cook several at once. I think the end result is a bit "plastic" looking - like you get on a Mcdonald's or something like that."
chefgrille replied: "They do work pretty well, especially for making breakfast sandwiches. Kind of like McMuffins. They were a bit hard to find though, I ended up at a sort of expensive kitchen shop. They were $3 a piece. Then a friend said they just save their tuna cans and take the label and other end off and they work just fine." I am trying to buy a couple of moulds for making hamburgers uniform in shape and about 4 cms thick? I have seen egg rings in supermarkets but they are far too thin for this job. The local BBQ suppliers here in Sydney don't appear to stock anything.
Anybody got an idea who might be a supplier.
Thanks for helping if you can Billy T replied: "Have you considered going to a metal supply shop and getting some rings cut off some stainless steel tube to your specific size.
Would be quite inexpensive to have made."
SexyTrojan replied: "Use a glass to "cut" the burgers if you can't find the molds."
yuni4you replied: "try you can order by internet.
I dont live in the UK ...but have had things delivered overseas.They have an on-line catalogue"
biscuitsmum replied: "Tupperware make (?used to make) a plastic hamburger press"
feralberryl replied: "Didnt Tupperware have a hamburger press?? Try them" Giant egg ring on the BBQ? If you were to use a big magnifying glass as an egg ring would one egg then be enough ?? Julia S replied: "Yeah, don't do that. Unless the glass is borosilicate (Pyrex), it could crack or shatter and then you'd have glass in your eggs and be out a magnifying glass." Runescape: Easter Egg Ring? Can you still get the easter egg ring since its easter? Or was that only in 2006 or something? Micheal J replied: "that was only 2003 it was sooooo cool!
2006 was a chicken suit i think
now you get a carrot and you can whack players with it"
Robin replied: "No, you can't get it anymore, sorry"
Y.Casper replied: "this year all u get is a dumb carrot and an emote" |
