Before using your Egg Cooker, clean the entire unit according to the cleaning
instructions. Wash all loose parts in warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly and
dry. Do not immerse egg cooker base in water.
You can poach up to 3 eggs or hard-cook or soft-cook up to 7 eggs. Cooking times
will vary depending on the size of the egg. To get the best results, use the
measuring cup included with the egg cooker which has water level markings to use
as a guide. These amounts are approximate and can be varied to suit individual
preferences. Use less water for softer cooked eggs and more water for harder
cooked eggs.

TO POACH EGGS:
1. Place the egg cooker base on a dry, level surface. Use the medium
cooked
water level markings on the measuring cup to determine the amount of water for
the number of eggs being cooked. Example: For 1 poached egg fill water to the
7 mark on the measuring cup; for 2 poached eggs, fill water to the 6 mark; for 3
poached eggs, fill water to the 5 mark. Note: The more eggs you are poaching
the more water you should use.

2. With the switch set to “OFF,” pour the recommended amount of cold water into
the electric base. Place the cooking rack into the base.
3. Lightly butter or oil the poaching cups to be used. Place the poaching pan on
top of the cooking rack in the egg cooker base. ALWAYS PLACE THE
POACHING PAN ON THE COOKING RACK. Be sure to position the poaching
pan onto the cooking rack so that it is level. Break one egg into each cup.

4. Place the cover on the egg cooker base and plug the appliance into a 120-volt,
AC electrical outlet. Turn the switch to “ON.” The “ON” light will glow, indicating
the cooking process has begun. Note: Do NOT remove the cover from the base
while the eggs are cooking. An audible alert will sound when the eggs are
ready, after approximately 5 to 8 minutes. Turn the switch to “OFF.” Unplug
cord from electrical outlet. Use hot pads or oven mitts to remove the cover and
poaching pan. Slide the eggs out of the cups with a smooth-edged utensil.
Serve immediately to prevent overcooking.
