Just what I was thinking! Sounds yummy in either chicken or beef versions....as long as there are no kidneys of the water filtration type - ugh! Funny how innards have gone out of vogue here in the colonies.....Quote:

Of course.....I used to take Miracle Whip sandwiches to school for lunch and some people might think that's gross too.....including me! :eek: :rolleyes: :D
Excuse me? What does my godson, Stewart, have to do with boiled eggs? He likes Marmite on his toast though! ;)
Yes, Sara, just like chicken pot pie, but with steak. And yes, I mean the water filtration type of kidneys. Loads of folk don't like the thought of offal. Steak pie on it's own is perfectly acceptable without the kidneys. :D

I have no idea how this thread ending up here after starting nicely but yes- the German, French AND Italian cuisine is full of stuff like kidneys, tripes, heads etc.
Regarding all this I would qualify as an American because I never ate it, even at a child. In Paris there used to be butcher shops that had nothing but that stuff (entrailles it's called, that means guts) and I couldn't even go along them as I couldn't stand the smell.
However, being an advocate of cultural relativity: in all poor cultures, meat is not wasted the way we do it only eating ribs and fillets and converting the rest to cat food:p
I know I'm a little late posting, but I figured you've already gotten your answer.
I put the eggs in cold water in a pan and put it on a medium heat. Once the water starts to boil, I allow 5 minutes then I take them and run them under cold water, to prevent them from still cooking.
STRONG WORD OF ADVICE:
Do NOT fall asleep while boiling eggs. 1. They explode. 2. They a 6itch to clean off the ceiling and walls.
Trust me, I speak from experience! :p
Donna, you are number 3 now with the experience "How to explode eggs without a microwave!" :D
For days now, I thought this thread was a joke, but hey, you guys really are talking about boiling eggs.
When I get some spare time, I may just read all the posts about egg boiling, and learn something!
:) :D :D :D
Me too Sallyanne. I have only read this page and don't have time to read it all but will later on. Richard's comment about cannibalism had me laughing out loud! :D :D
Barbara,
Good! I thought I was the only yutz that did that!! I should start a "How to Make an Egg Explode without a Microwave Club" Anyone care to join??
Too late, Donna, it's already started! You're member #3. Sara (ES) and Karen (KK) are the other members. Anymore members out there?Quote:

You can see that it is a very exclusive club with only the most honored members :D
I will see whether I can make some eggs explode this weekend only to have the fun of joining it :D
I should be granted "honorary mention membership" for my ability to explode potatoes :eek: :o :rolleyes:
