I never cook my eggs in boiling water. At 180 Fahrenheit which is about 82 C- the album will completely harden, this is the temp you want if you are looking to cook the whites while still keeping the yoke ‘dip-able’.

Boiled at 90 C? Hmmm. I guess they’ve changed physics as well.

Or else they've been exiled to 10,000 mountains like all mad scientists should be.

Let's try this again.

90 C equals roughly 212 F

What will biology teachers use as examples of irreversible colloids now?

I bring the water to a boil and then turn off the fire, cover the pan, and let it sit for twelve minutes. Give the eggs a cold-water bath and put them in the frig. They come out perfect every time.

Coincidence? I think not.

How do you boil eggs below 100° C?

It's called "altitude." The higher you go, the lower the boiling point.

Mr. Bond: “How do you like your eggs”?

Bond: “Scrambled well, not runny, with buttered toast and a fine Chianti and Fava beans.”

Uhm, NO.

100* C is the boiling point of water at sea level, which corresponds with 212* F.

Mr. Fahrenheit tried to use human body temperature as 100*, and the freezing point of salt water as his benchmarks, but his tools were not accurate enough, which is why body temp is 98.5* and zero is inexplicable...

The (approximate) conversion factor for *C to *F is: *C multiplied by 1.8 plus 32. *F to *C is: *F minus 32 multiplied by 0.555555.

If you want to go into below zero temperatures, you have to use degrees absolute, which means you have to add to the temperature you have

in *C is (+273), and in *F is (+491)

Ok, so they could pull a partial vacuum.

Just in time! I decided to make French toast rather than deviled eggs, seeing that there’s a storm coming.

Are the eggs cold from the fridge or room temp before you put them in the pan?.................
