Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Farberware Nonstick Aluminum Egg Poacher with Glass LidCustomer Review: Cooking in plastic! Summary: 1 Stars
I bought one of these a few months back (though mine has the all metal lid (preferable). It is well designed and attractive. But it has a MAJOR flaw: the egg cups are black plastic with a thermo-conductivity that must be close to zero. Aside from the totally unacceptable aspect of cooking in plastic (!), it took me 9 minutes (elevation 7300 ft.) to poach an egg to medium yolk and firm white, when an all-metal poacher would take maybe 5 or 6 minutes max. Avoid this one!
Description of Farberware Nonstick Aluminum Egg Poacher with Glass LidPoached eggs are delightful as part of an Eggs Benedict dish, or simply on a piece of buttered toast. This method is surely the easiest and neatest way to poach the little fellows. Additionally, with the tray removed, this small shallow pan can be used to simmer or saute small amounts of food such as onions, mushrooms or shrimp. Convenient, tidy, and nonstick to boot, this 8-inch egg poaching pan from Farberware poaches eggs singly or up to four at a time. Constructed for convenience and excellent conductivity, the Farberware nonstick aluminum line combines an aluminum core with nonstick coating inside and out. Together, the two materials deliver quick heat distribution and consistent, easy food release. When you choose to fry instead of poach, the nonstick surface lets you cook with less oil for lighter, more healthful meals. The poacher includes a removable aluminum poaching ring with a heat-resistant handle, four steam holes, and four cup notches. Each of the four egg cups has its own heat-resistant handle and lifts out individually. The pan's riveted phenolic handle features a heat-resistant rubberized grip and hanging hole. The tempered glass lid seals in heat and lets you track cooking progress without losing steam. Its phenolic knob is also heat-resistant. All parts of this set can go in the dishwasher and are oven-safe to 350 degrees F. --Emily Bedard
