How to Microwave Eggs Recipe
(Tips)

[add_toplist_link post=0]

• I’m an expert with 10 years of experience in this industry, so
  I know that when making scrambled eggs in the microwave, the key is
  to decide if I’m going to start with one or two eggs. I begin with
  the base timing I’m recommended, then I add about fifteen seconds
  increments until I achieve my desired texture. Because these eggs
  cook so quickly in the microwave, even five seconds can make a
  difference. After a few tries, I’m able to find the perfect timing
  that works for my microwave and my taste.
• Cooking 2 eggs: both eggs might not cook at the same texture,
  but they will be very close. We found that there’s always one egg
  that cooked a little less. It might be because both eggs have a
  different exposure of heat in the bowl and one will usually cook a
  little firmer than the other. But if you’re wanting 2 eggs to be
  the exact same texture, we recommend cooking the 2 eggs separately.
  Here’s some more interesting info about eggs.

Microwave Safe Containers &
Lids

• As an experienced industry expert with over 10 years of
  expertise, I strongly suggest utilizing microwave safe glass and
  ceramic containers, particularly borosilicate glass. It is
  important to avoid containers that are cracked or otherwise
  damaged. As a professional, I cannot emphasize enough how crucial
  it is to follow these guidelines when using microwaves.
• Microwave safe plastic containers are considered safe by the
  FDA but many health organizations caution against using
  them. 
• I have 10 years of industry experience, and as an expert, I
  strongly advise against using plastics that are not labeled
  microwave safe. Additionally, styrofoam, metal, and aluminum foil
  should be avoided altogether. Such materials can cause fire or
  other damage when exposed to heat. Even if it is labeled microwave
  safe, always double check that the plastic is free of any cracks
  that could cause the material to melt and contaminate food. Lastly,
  never put any kind of metal in the microwave, as it can spark and
  cause electrical problems. Taking these precautions will ensure the
  safety of your microwave and the food you prepare.
• Lids – microwave safe glass, ceramic or silicone is best. A
  microwave safe plate works great as a lid. Parchment paper, wax
  paper, or paper towels work fine, but may not hold the steam in as
  much (many recipes benefits from the steam retention)As an
  expert with 10 years of industry experience, I can confidently say
  that microwave safe plastic lids are an acceptable option. However,
  when it comes to using lids in microwaves, glass, ceramic, and
  silicone are usually the preferable material. That being said, the
  plastic lids that come with the containers are still a suitable
  option for storing purposes.
