This weekend is Aida (neighbour) 3 days wedding starting from Friday. Congratulation Aida.
I was assigned to boil 90 eggs for the wedding favor (Bunga Telor - direct translation = Flower Egg). We need hard boil eggs for the bunga telor.
How to boil the 90 eggs?
Step 1. We need 90 eggs - wash with water. Washing liquid is not require except if you want your egg to taste soapy:
Step 2. We need one big pot. Place washed eggs in the pot:
Step 3. Add water in the pot. Eggs must be submerged under the water:
Step 4. Add a spoon full of salt in the pot for taste:
Step 5. Place the pot on the stove and start the fire. You can sing the Firestarter song by The Prodigy (lyric) while on this step:
Step 6. Leave the egg to boil for 25 to 30 minutes.
Step 7. Once the water started boiling violently, take one egg out to check if the eggs is cooked. How to check? a) My theory - If the water around the egg evaporated quickly, the egg is cooked. b) My Neighbour's sister theory - If you spin the egg and the egg spins easily, the egg is cooked. c) A confirm theory - peel the egg's shell and check it out.
Step 8. Once the eggs are boiled, removed the water and take out the eggs. If the eggs cracked a little, don't worry so much. When the egg cool down the crack will disappear (the heat and expansion theory from primary school science class).
