Eggs Cooked without Boiling.— By this very simple process eggs are said to be lighter and better adapted to delicate stomachs than by the old and general plan of boiling. Proceed as follows : — Heat a basin with boiling- water till it is thoroughly hot ; then throw off the water and put the eggs to be cooked into it, moving them round so that every part shall receive the heat. Have ready a kettle of boiling water

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
