How and how much to cook eggs in a bag

How to prepare eggs

Take them out of the refrigerator about an hour before cooking to bring them to room temperature. If the eggs are cold, the shells may crack during cooking.

Additionally, you can pierce the shell from the blunt side. This will also help prevent cracks. Insert the needle or other object very carefully and only a few millimeters so as not to touch the protective film inside.

Rinse eggs under running water to keep them free of any contamination.
