Experienced people know that electric kettles can be used to boil eggs, but you must pay attention to the skills when using an electric kettle to boil eggs. If you don’t pay attention to the skills, the eggs may crack in the electric kettle. What are the skills for boiling eggs in an electric kettle? Let’s take a look.

The kettle can boil eggs. The steps are as follows:

1. First put the eggs into the pot, then add water, about two eggs high.

2. Turn on high heat and cook for another ten minutes after boiling.

3. Pour out the boiling water.

From a nutritional point of view, in order to ensure a balanced diet and meet the needs of the body without overnutrition, in general, it is appropriate for the elderly to eat 1 to 2 eggs a day. Young and middle-aged people, those engaged in mental work or light physical labor, can eat 2 eggs a day; those engaged in heavy physical labor and consuming more nutrients can eat 2 to 3 eggs a day; children and teenagers should also eat 2 to 3 eggs a day because they are growing and have a fast metabolism. Pregnant women, postpartum women, nursing mothers, the weak and patients recovering from major surgery need to increase the intake of high-quality protein. They can eat 3 to 4 eggs a day, but not too many.

The nutritional value of eggs is still relatively high, but you should still eat them reasonably and not eat too much. It is convenient to boil eggs in an electric kettle, but here I want to remind you that if the water boils too quickly when boiling eggs, the eggs will easily crack, so it is recommended to put a little salt in the water when boiling eggs.
