Does just what it says, poaches or bastes. I use with lid on and less water in a shallow pan. Recommends that you use a little oil, and I do as eggs can stick a little. If you prefer not to, a small spatula can easily help remove the egg from the cup.

This works like a charm. I smear butter in the cups for extra tasty eggs.1) Bring half inch of water to boil in small fry pan.2) Smear butter in cups and crack eggs into them.3) Use fork as a handle (see video in listing) and set tray in boiling water. Eggs will stay dry above the water.4) Tightly cover with lid (glass preferred for easy viewing). See note.5) Set timer to 3 min. (you'll adjust your timing with practice).6) Remove tray using fork and tip out eggs. They should slide out easily. I like to tip a soft boiled egg onto buttered toast.Note: The key is to have a tight fitting lid. If the lid has a vent hole, plug it. Or buy a lid that has a rubber rim specially designed for trapping steam. If the lid is not hot to your touch, something is wrong: either the water is not boiling hard enough or the lid is leaking too much steam. You need hot steam trapped above the eggs.Some reviewers say the cups are too small, but I have used with many brands of eggs and large eggs always fit nicely for me. Some say the eggs stick, but if you coat the cups generously with oil, cooking spray, or butter (my favorite), the eggs won't stick.This is an awesome little kitchen tool that will deliver perfect soft boiled eggs every time.

I don’t have storage space for full size egg poacher so this little gadget was perfect. I’ve only used it four times so I can’t speak to its durability. It makes a great poached egg though. Crack an egg into one of the greased cups, use a fork in one of the holes to lift it into a frying pan with about 1/2” of boiling water. Cover with a lid. I found 3minutes and 20 seconds is perfect. Remove with a plastic spatula that won’t scratch the surface. It’s so easy and fast and cleanup was easy too. I didn’t have a problem with the egg sticking to the surface. I would definitely recommend this!

Si no pones aceite antes de hechar los huevos, se pegan al molde

Los huevos de tamaño normal en Mëxico no caben y se derraman. Además se pegan aunque se les ponga aceite, o mantequilla.

Los recipientes para los huevos son muy pequeños y se desbordan los huevos, además de que la superficie "antiadherente" no evita que se peguen.

I was a little concerned by some of the comments about cleaning and needing oil but that isn't correct. Using oil leaves a nasty (in my opinion) taste on the eggs not to mention degrading the nutritional value. As another reviewer noted the trick is NOT to try and clean it right away. Wait about 15 minutes and the residue will dry and form a flakey skin that you can easily peel off leaving the pan almost perfectly clean and needing only a quick wipe.I love poached eggs and this little pan makes them so easy to cook perfectly every time. I put a little bit of water (1") in a small frying pan, put in this insert, crack my eggs into the holes and then cover on low heat for 5 minutes. Perfect eggs every time. Recommend.
