Using Your Egg Cooker; To Poach Eggs - West Bend EGG COOKER Instruction Manual

Cooking Rack
Measuring Cup
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 heating base in water.
You can poach up to 4 eggs or hard-cook /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 soft 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 4 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 egg cooker 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 onto 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, approximately 6 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.
5. Allow the egg cooker to cool completely before discarding any remaining water
from the base and before cleaning.
