6pcs Egg Poacher with Stand Design FDA Mini Silicone Egg Poacher Cups Egg Cooker No BPA Egg Bites Molds Poached Egg Maker Cups, for Microwave, Egg Poacher Pan, Egg Cookware, Stovetop

Love that I can use these to make 2 in a smaller pot and put the holders in the dishwasher. Lot easier than my stainless steel insert with teflon cups that came with larger pan. Cooked nice and easily. Like others I sprayed cups with cooking spray. I did need to release them around the edges - but not hard at all (had to do that with the teflon ones most of the time too). I liked how evenly the eggs cooked - not hard on the edges and underdone in the middle.

I remember my dad's metal 3 egg poacher with the teflon coating. These are so much better. Less scratchy, more versatile, and no teflon. Easy to clean if you remember to rub some oil inside first. Half the time I forget but the poached eggs pop right out anyway. if you forget the oil it is really hard to scrub clean but I let the residue dry for a day or so and then it's easy.. Dishwasher safe , top rack with the glasses. You just have to experiment with the time to get the perfect eggs for you. We live at altitude so we go 13 minutes for hard yolks. Any water that ends up in the poacher just pours off, so that's a non-issue.

These are very nice quality. I have to use non stock spray or the eggs stick. I also try to flip the egg over the last minute of cooking so it steams the top. Sometimes the eggs do not want to come out

I have used the same stainless steel cups part of a cookware set for nearly 50 years which made it difficult to extract the finished eggs. Being silicone, I did not expect to have to grease the cups beforehand but did so. I still had to run a sharp paring knife around the edge to release the eggs though and they still needed to coaching to release onto the English muffins. Despite this, I still like them as I can use a smaller pot. Probably my biggest complaint is that they are sold in lots of 6. If you want to prepare eggs benedict for 4 people (8 eggs) you're out of luck.

These egg cups are fun and pretty easy to use. There is a little bit of a learning curve to achieve the eggs you want. We wanted well done poached eggs with less mess. These can be used in boiling water or the microwave but be sure to grease them first. I submerse oiled cups into water that is in a rolling boil state, just so the tips are sticking above water, then crack the eggs into them. This is just how I do it but other cup users have mentioned just 1 inch of water will suffice. I find that if the eggs aren’t completely submerged then they don’t cook evenly. Cleaning is easy and they can go in the dishwasher. I didn’t notice any changes in taste, just good old fashion poached eggs. Happy cooking!

These work just fine so long as you add some butter and gently release it from the cup with a rubber spatula... Make sure to use a lid on your own pan well. I cooked them about 5 mins medium heat and could have gone a little less...

This is for the poachers. They work beautifully. I held them down in the empty pan and added water to 2/3 the way up the cups, pulled them out, and heated the water. I misted canola oil into the cups and poured an egg in each. Once the water was boiling, I placed the 2 cups in the water, put on a lid, and cooked them for 7 minutes (I prefer a soft boiled consistency). I lifted each out with 2 mini tongs. The eggs popped right out onto the toast. Breakfast was delicious. I’ll try to add pictures.

I love poached eggs. I have a lifetime brand from several years ago that works perfectly and I've made SEVERAL batches of poached eggs since I was a kid. I haven't been in my apartment due to the COVID-19 situation, so I ordered these to give them a try. They are not what they are cracked up to be. The Silicone is rather flimsy. I spilled egg white into the water when transporting it in with tongs, so that was a fail. Make sure you slide the eggs into the cups too. Even though they're silicone the eggs did stick. You have to grease them. I greased mine well on the second try, and the eggs still stuck. In fact, even after washing them by hand with a tough sponge, they still stuck. They also stuck after going through the dish washer. When cooking with a lid, there was a puddle of water on the surface of the egg that made it difficult to decipher if it was uncooked egg or water, so I had to very carefully drain the surface before putting on the plate. And eggs broke in the process of transferring them to the plate. It was easier to make them in a regular boing pot of water with a drained ladle, the old fashioned way. Don't waste your 10 bucks. I have a friend who also got his own set of silicone cups. I asked him how his batch went, he said he won't be using them again, he had the same issue.
