When cracking an egg
    #21991662 - 07/24/15 06:19 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

How do you prevent the shell/s from falling into the egg yolk and white?  I work in a fast food restaurant and I have to crack a lot of eggs for their breakfast.  We cook eggs directly on the grill, so if there is broken shells, it's very difficult to remove it afterwards (it gets too hot).  We have to prevent it.  I tried cracking the egg on the edge of the grill using more force (than usual).  But this doesn't work 100% of the time.  I would like to know how you guys do it.

I make eggs for breakfast all the time, crack it on something significantly hard -not the side of a plastic bowl- just enough so there's a small crack and then I just push my thumbs in gently until it opens up

Ive tried all kinds of methods all my life. I found the absolute best method is to crack an egg on another egg! Eggs are just the right blunt shape to create the perfect dent to push your thumbs though, opening the egg in half. For the final egg I try to use the bluntest surface available. a curved countertop, or a blunt handle on a cast iron skillet etc..

My Lover is obsessed with eggs so I crack a bunch every time she visits.

Also, I notice that store bought eggs have much thinner shells than what my chicken lays me. This makes eggs from the store slightly more difficult to crack. Non the less, my technique never changes.  I get shell in the egg maybe 1 / 150 eggs. (It almost never happens.)

If all else fails you could get an "Egg Cracker" Though I have zero experience and cant speak for their efficiency :shrug:

I crack the egg to make a decent crack but not completely fuck it up then slowly open the egg with my fingers too.

If you dont break the shell too much and crack it slow you wont have issues.

Ive got to try this egg on egg violence though! That sounds like a badass way to crack them twice as fast :awesomenod:

Hold it in your hand with your palm supporting the back. Tap it on a very hard, level surface. Not a curved surface, that leads to more star-crack type. I tend to use the flat-top grill. Tap it sharply, once. Do not tap it again. Then use your middle finger and thumb to pull it apart.

I've worked in many restaurants, and this really is the trick to doing it right every time. Takes some practice though. I learned this at McDonald's making egg McMuffins.

Alton Brown has an episode of Good Eats on breakfast where he shows it.

Also, it'll do you good to get your hands used to hot things. I could easily pull a shell out of an egg on a 400F grill. I can grab things out of a fryer basket with bare hands too. It just takes some conditioning.

:rofl: fuck deep fryers! Cooking really does redefine heat and burn for most people.

one hand crack on the side right at the widest point, simultaneously open with hand gently by widening the crack with pressure on either end and it should 90% of the time split and allow the goodies out.

watch anyone who has to do this a lot and see technique is action.

Crack it on a flat surface like a bench top! It feels weird at first, but it's definitely the best method I have used.
