Yes I did....

It is a very good method when you want to bake several eggs at a time. You need to tweak a little the timing, as eggs vary in size and ovens vary in performance. I use my Breville oven for it, as I cannot trust the big oven we have at the moment (that shall change! smileys/wink.gif

I liked the texture and they did peel very easily, which is another plus for me

Yes, I have and restaurants do it all the time.

Good to know, thanks! How do you like your Breville oven? I've been toying with getting one.

I'm trying this. Does it work for soft "boiled" too?

 

[music-city-missy]

It does work but I guess I don't se it as any better than boiling and you do have to adjust

Here is a blog I started and have not followed through with but you can see the results of mine. LOL

Not like this, but I baked a few into some braided bread once

I have one too---love it for cooking smaller meals and the convection.

Love my Breville....

... it saved our life during the year we lived in Los Angeles in a tiny kitchen without a stove or an oven... can you imagine?

I even baked sourdough bread in it - in my blog there is a post about it

Our Breville is about 6 years old now, and still going strong. It has some problems with the switch taking a few attempts before turning on, but other than that, it is pretty wonderful. We use it almost daily

never tried soft-boiled, it should work fine, with some tweaking of baking time....

I had that happen the first time....

.... then I avoided that problem by moving the eggs around after 5 minutes, and again 5 minutes later.

if they sit in the same position throughout the whole baking time those hot spots happen indeed
