ANOTHER WAY TO COOK EGGS

A Bachelor’s Method ‘•The Information given in the recent article on how to cook eggs,” writes “A Back-Wock Bachelor,” "leaves out one very simple method of boiling an egg that might be beter known. I learned it from a V.A.D. while in hospital during the war. "A billy or some other suitable receptacle is bait-filled with water and brought to the boil without the eggs in it. When the water comes to the boil, put the eggs In and take the billy off the fire. Put it to one side in a spot where there are no draughts. It is better to put it on a wooden surface, at any rate, not on a cold metal surface, because that will cool the water. After six,minutes the eggs may be taken out and eaten. They will be found to be beautifully done. Unlike eggs tolled in the conventional manner, the whites will not have become hard and unappetising. Tbo chief merit of this method of boiling an egg, to a bachelor at any rate, is that the stove or the flame can then be used to boil up the kettle for the tea while the eggs are cooking on their own.
