• Don’t know if your eggs are fresh?
Place them in a bowl of salted cool
water. If they sink, they are fresh –
if they float, they are not.
ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
To assemble your
Cuisinart™ Egg Cooker:
• To prevent the development of
bacteria in cooked egg dishes,
eggs should not be left at room
temperature longer than 2 hours
(count preparation as well as
serving time.)
1. Rinse the lid, poaching tray and
cooking rack in hot soapy water or
in a dishwasher (top rack only).
DO NOT submerge base of unit.
Base can be wiped clean with a
damp cloth. Please refer to the
Cleaning Instructions section for
more information.
• Chill and refrigerate hard cooked
eggs immediately after removing
from the Egg Cooker. For best
results, plunge cooked eggs into
a bowl of ice water - this will stop
the cooking process and prevent
a dark ring from developing
around the yolk.
2. Place poaching tray, beaker and
egg holders next to the unit.
CAUTION: Piercing Pin on base of
beaker is extremely sharp.
3. Position the cooking tray over the
base. Ribs on side handles should
be facing upward.
• Is the egg hard cooked or raw?
Can’t recall which ones you
have cooked? Play spin the egg.
A cooked egg will spin, a raw egg
will wobble.
4. Place the stainless steel lid over
the cooking tray.
5. Plug in power cord. Your egg
cooker is now assembled for use.
• Fresher eggs (less than a week
old) are harder to peel than those
a little older.
TIP AND HINTS
• To peel hard cooked eggs easily,
roll gently on the counter, using the
palm of your hand to crack. Dip in
a bowl of cold water and begin
peeling from the larger end.
• When purchasing eggs, choose
only those eggs that are stored in a
refrigerator case. Refrigerate eggs
until ready to use. (For baking, eggs
may be placed in a bowl of warm
water for 5 to 10 minutes to bring
them safely to “room temperature”
for best baking results.)
• Hard cooked eggs in the shell will
keep for up to one week properly
refrigerated. Hard cooked eggs
out of the shell should be used
immediately.
• Eggs should be stored in the carton
in which they were purchased to
keep them from drying out and
absorbing refrigerator odours.
The eggs should be in the carton
large end up - this will help them
stay fresh longer and will keep
the yolks centered.
• Hard cooked eggs that have been
coloured and displayed decoratively
should not be consumed - enjoy
their colourful display and discard.
Cook extra eggs for eating and
consider the discarded eggs an
inexpensive way to decorate.

• Hard cooked eggs make a colourful,
flavourful and nutritious garnish.
They can be sliced, wedged,
finely chopped or pressed
through a fine sieve to make
a powder-like garnish.
6. Rinse the number of eggs desired
– cook up to 7 eggs at one time.
7. Using the piercing pin located
under the beaker, pierce the
large end of each egg and
place in cooking tray. Rinse
pin after use.
• To serve soft or medium-cooked
eggs out of the shell, break the
shell through the centre of the egg
with a knife. Use a teaspoon to
scoop the egg out of each half onto
a serving dish or piece of toast.
8. Place lid on top of unit and slide
power switch to the “On” position.
Indicator light will be lit.
9. When liquid is completely
evaporated, the eggs will be
cooked to the desired consisten-
cy. Cooking time will vary depend-
ing on the number of eggs and
consistency. See Approximate
Cooking Time Chart, page 5.
• To serve soft or medium-cooked
eggs in a cup, place the egg in a
cup, small end down. Slice off the
large end, about one inch from the
top, using a knife or egg scissors.
Eat from the shell with a teaspoon
or serve with toast strips to dip in
the soft yolk.
10. Five audible tones signal when
cooking is complete and indicator
light will turn off.
11. Slide power switch to the “Off”
position. NOTE: The unit has
an auto-shutoff feature. However,
if the switch is not in the “Off “
position, once the unit cools off it
will automatically turn on again.
