One of my granddaughters loved this so much she used it even when I didn’t need cracked eggs!
No bits of eggshells to fish out and it’s a simple cleanup and rinse off.
One of the hardest skills to teach kids is cracking an egg one handed. Even adults find this challenging. Yes, cracking an egg with one had is a culinary prestige event sure to amaze your neighbors…but not for kids.
Most parents just skip this event as they know it only leads to crushed eggshells in the mix, egg splatters on clothes and counters. And if you burst out laughing at the astonished look on your child’s face as the egg and shell fly everywhere, you will also have a small, crushed ego running from the room with egg dripping from their clothes.
Yes, watching first-timer’s little hands cracking eggs is a family movie event that should not be lost so keep your phone cameras ready.
For batters, brownies, cookies, quiche, scrambled eggs, pancakes, waffles and any time an egg needs cracking your kids will love to use this…even when you don’t need an egg cracked.
Really, I was not training little chefs for fame and fortune. I just wanted to get the job done quickly with as little cleanup and squabbling as possible and keep my granddaughters engaged and helping. I have used variations of egg crackers for 18 years. My daughter gave me my first egg cracker pictured in the photo.
This one is a newer stainless-steel model. This one is like pliers that you squeeze with one hand while covering the egg itself with the other. This works very well but you need to make sure the piercing blades at the top of the device actually pierce the shell…which is does 99% of the time.
You can see my youngest granddaughter with my first all plastic egg cracker making a breakfast sandwich with cheese!
Material: Long lasting durable stainless steel.
