1. Prepare everything you need. Be sure to wash the eggs before cooking them. -
2. Add the vinegar to half a glass of cold water, and stir. -
3. Lightly tap the eggshell with the back of a knife so it cracks slightly. Carefully break the egg into the glass, trying not to damage the yolk. The egg will immediately sink to the bottom. -
4. Put the glass in the microwave, set the power to maximum (mine is 800 W) and set the timer for 45 seconds. -
5. After about 20 seconds the egg white will start to fold, but the egg will remain at the bottom. -
6. As soon as the egg floats to the surface, it's done. Remove it with a spoon or skimmer. -
7. Cook the rest of eggs in the same way. You can use the same water, but the preparation time will be reduced by about a third because the liquid in the glass is already hot. To speed up the cooling process, place the eggs in cold water. -
8. Eggs cooked in the microwave are perfect for salads and sandwiches. If you like this recipe, please share it with your friends!
