Ever wondered how to make poached eggs in the microwave? The Nordic Ware egg poacher is a great and affordable kitchen gadget to make poached eggs easily in the microwave. Great for a daily breakfast when combined with some unsalted mixed nuts, some washed baby tomatoes, and some yogurt on the side.
I prefer using the Egg Poacher method over using a mug because using the Nordic Ware egg poacher prevents the eggs from exploding in the microwave.
Recipe method (courtesy of Nordic Ware website):
- Crack 1 egg into each cup of egg poacher base. Pierce each egg yolk with fork, and add 1/2 tsp water to each cup. (Add water to empty cup if only cooking 1 egg).
- For 1 egg, cooks for 30-45 seconds. 2 eggs, cook for 45-60 seconds. Cooking times may vary based on different microwaves.
- Let eggs stand for 30 seconds before removing to allow eggs to finish cooking. Enjoy!

Geoff, thanks for your tip about placing the egg poacher on the edge of the "rolly tray." This does help the eggs to cook more evenly! Before I used your tip, one egg would always be more cooked than the other.

[@geoffmobile]

Great to hear, thank you cyrix007!!

[@gijr2003]

All the other yt vids say to add water and fork the yokes. Micro at 45 or 50 seconds for runny eggs. But microwaves will vary, adjust power level and time cooked.

[@geoffmobile]

thanks for the info! Cheers, Geoff

[@nathanwahl9224]

Yeah, they actually read the instructions.

[@maurisamaurisa]

I thing the water is only for making poached eggs.

[@bloodshy]

Your narrative skills are unique and enjoyable.

[@geoffmobile]

thanks very much!! :D

[@bettyannebaker9055]

Thanks for the great review, going out to buy one today!

[@geoffmobile]

awesome, glad to hear! Thanks Betty :)

[@jamies7102]

Thank you for this video, I found after cooking the eggs for awhile that the best way to cook them is to put the microwave on medium heat for 2 minutes.

[@geoffmobile]

Great, thank you Jamie!

[@mikeford4089]

You might want to use a small amount of Pam cooking spray, that way the eggs won't stick. BTW, the rolly tray is actually called a carousel.

[@geoffmobile]

+Mike Ford thank you Mike for the suggestion and info! Cheers, Geoff

[@flashcraft]

Very well done video. Thanks.

[@geoffmobile]

thanks!!!

[@maurisamaurisa]

Love your Nordic Ware egg cooker video. Just wondering if it will poach eggs too.

[@geoffmobile]

Thank you Maurisa! I find if you add a bit more water into the Nordic Ware cooker with the eggs, it gives a more poached texture. It tastes good, but Microwaving still differs from poaching in a simmering pot on the stove.

I would love to try them, Geoff, but I'm kinda allergic to eggs, although I love their taste. I can only eat them every once in a while, so I think I will pass the 2 Cavity Edd Poacher.

[@geoffmobile]

+Woggy Flush Hi Woggy, that's too bad! Hopefully there are other delicious foods you can enjoy :)

[@Woggyflush]

geoffmobile
oh yes plenty! just not eggs, thanks Geoff!

[@kimberlyevans1274]

I have that same gadget. My egg actually blew up in my face and all over the counter. I was just shocked that It blew up while I was taking the egg out.

[@geoffmobile]

Yikes! Thanks for commenting.

[@nathanwahl9224]

Well you know if you folks would actually read the instructions.......

[@anodizedpanel9245]

Yes. You must pierce the yolk.

[@jonstreeter1540]

OMG, I have the same countertop and the same brown eggs in the same plastic container. 😳
It's a sign 😀👍

[@geoffmobile]

hehehe thanks Jon! :D

[@BigMacOrange]

I think your supposed to add a teaspoon of water to each side

[@geoffmobile]

Thank you!

[@ChainsawSquirrel]

you can do the same thing with a small paper bowl .. no clean up .. cept throw away the paper bowl, pack of 10 paper bowls at dollar store .. yes, in the long run this product is cheaper.. but not all of us at work have the option or want to fool with washing this egg muffin pan everyday

[@geoffmobile]

thank you Chainsaw Squirrel , that is a good suggestion especially if one does not have the place to wash the Egg Maker.
