Eggs are a staple food in many diets, and they can be prepared in a variety of ways. Boiling is one of the simplest and most popular methods, and it can be done in a microwave in just a few minutes. However, there are a few things you need to know to ensure that your eggs turn out perfectly every time.
First, it is important to use the right amount of water. Too much water will make the eggs watery, while too little water can cause them to explode. A good rule of thumb is to use about 1/2 inch of water for each egg.
Next, you need to pierce the eggs with a fork before cooking them. This will help to prevent them from exploding in the microwave. If you do not pierce the eggs, the steam that builds up inside them can cause them to burst.
