Before placing eggs in a saucepan, some housewives place a saucer in the container.
Moreover, the plate is installed upside down.
After this, water is poured into the pan. Chicken eggs are placed in the liquid.
The dish with all its contents is placed on the stove. The process of boiling eggs begins.
Many cooks may ask: “Why do you need to put a saucer in there at all?”
Lifehack explained
If the eggs are boiled in a container with a saucer installed, the shell is guaranteed to remain intact.
But the appearance of cracks on chicken eggs when they are in boiling water is a fairly common occurrence.
Thus, having a small plate in the saucepan will save the housewife from having to add salt to the water.
An important nuance
If the housewife plans to use the saucer life hack, then it is advisable to boil the eggs in a fairly large saucepan.
Of course, you can also place the plate in the ladle. But then there is a high risk that the boiling water will start pouring out onto the stove.
But placing a saucer in a large container is unlikely to lead to such a consequence.
