Kent Instant Egg Boiler Review – A Hassle-Free, Wholesome Breakfast In 3 Minutes!

Eggs are one of those inexpensive and super versatile ingredients. An easily available source of good-quality protein, one of the easiest ways to consume eggs is by boiling them. 

Boiled eggs can simply be consumed with a generous sprinkle of some salt and pepper or added to something as fancy as a quinoa salad topped with chopped boiled eggs. 

However, boiling eggs to your preferred level requires you to stand around, wait, and keep an eye on them (and off your phone!) This is because one extra minute can result in dramatically overcooked eggs.

Enter electric egg boilers! One of the most beginner-friendly kitchen appliances, egg boilers eliminate all the extra steps. All you need to do is fill water as required, place the eggs, turn the switch on, and wait until they’re done.

We, just like you, are always looking for appliances, processes, and hacks that reduce our time in the kitchen. So when we came across this electric egg boiler that has an auto shut-off feature, we knew it had to be reviewed. For our Kent instant egg boiler review, Team Mishry tried some hard boiled and some soft boiled eggs.

Team Mishry’s Kent Egg boiler review also talks in detail about cleaning and maintenance of the product to ensure quality retention. 

Mishry recommends cleaning the heating plate with a soft cloth and egg tray before/after each use. If not, the tray starts accumulating particles which results in the bottom part of the eggs having brown ring shapes. Additionally, this also enhances the longevity of the heating plate and tray.
