Awesome Eggs

Dreamfarm is always coming up with useful and unique kitchen gadgets. The Flegg is designed to cook perfectly round eggs for breakfast sandwiches and topping off ramen. Made from heat-resistant, non-stick silicone, it perfectly contains a single egg, can flip it over and deposit it onto your plate. Sold as a set of two.

We have a hard enough time making omelets that don’t break apart on us when folding them over, but this Korean chef makes it look easy to create one with a swirled design that looks like a tornado. The best part – it gets stacked atop a dome of fried rice and surrounded with a moat of tomato sauce. Get in our bellies!

You’ve gotta break some eggs to make a YouTube video. The Slow Mo Guys broke out the big guns with the Phantom TMX 7510 high-speed camera to capture footage of eggs being pierced with a bullet at as much as 1 million frames per second. While the slowest shots are amazing, the resolution drops off dramatically around 100,000 fps.

The Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences answers a question none of us had, but are nonetheless fascinated by the answer. We now know that if you crack open an egg while diving 60 feet below the ocean’s surface, its yolk and white hold together as a unit. We wonder if they brought a hot pan with a lid down there if the egg would cook.

There’s something immensely satisfying about this video of the SANOVO OptiBreaker, a specialized assembly line machine which ingests over 200,000 eggs hourly, gently cracks each one, then separates the whites from the yolks. It also can wash itself automatically.

LEGO builder AstonishingStudios wants to eventually build a machine that can cook and assemble an entire Egg McMuffin. First on the list – a robot that breaks open an egg and separates it from its shell. It can also split up its yolk and its white. The trickiest part was engineering the part that delicately holds the egg and cracks it.

Designer agepbiz has been creating a series of fun 3D-printable models which can be stored inside of a matching toy egg. Each one is designed to be printed in place, without the need for support structures. You can download the models to print your own over on Cults.

Easter eggs are usually made from, uh, eggs… or maybe chocolate. But metalsmith shurap likes his eggs really, really hard-boiled. So to celebrate Easter 2020, he made himself an egg out of steel cable. We love the intricate damascus patterns that emerged in the finished piece.

Getting an egg to crack perfectly without breaking the yolk or getting eggshell takes some practice. But engineers look for ways to eliminate human error from such problems, and that’s exactly what The Q did with his mechanical egg cracking gadget.

Artist Marcello Barenghi presents a time-lapse video of him creating a photorealistic image of a fried egg using colored pencils, paints, and airbrushing. The simulated shine is so impressive that we want to grab a fork right now and poke it into our screen. Breakfast time!

Check out these patterned Easter eggs which create the illusion of movement when rotated in front of a strobe. The mathematical images were calculated with MATLAB and drawn with an EggBot. AA4CC produced a similar effect with a laser and photochromic paint.

Who says food doesn’t belong in the swimming pool? Float your cares away with some delicious high protein grub on these amusing bacon and egg pool rafts from Kangaroo. A 90″ strip of bacon and a 63″ serving of fried eggs should more than satisfy any hunger.

Make the Caped Crusader part of a nutritious breakfast with this whimsical egg cup and spoon that dresses your boiled egg as Batman. Comes with a Bat logo toast cutter. You’d think they’d make one for Robin’s egg too.

UFC fighter Anthony ‘Showtime’ Pettis smacks down some eggs in slow-mo, using his best and most precise roundhouse kick. Time to make an omelette, we suppose. More food fighting here.

Mother nature messes with our heads once again, delivering an unexpected surprise inside of yet another giant chicken egg. We’ll stop posting these when we get to Level 4. (Thanks Everyone!)
