3 years ago Anne Widya set out to make the perfect hard-boiled egg. She soon found that when the egg is easy to peel and the yolk is bright yellow or orange — it’s good to go.
In a post on Bored Panda she explains how she went from cooking the perfect hard-boiled egg to creating some amazing food art.
Here’s her story:
“In the beginning, I did not understand why some boiled egg were so hard to peel that I had to break the white part to remove the shell. I decided to use nori (dry seaweed) or sushi wrap to make a cute design out of that “broken” shape. My first creation was little chicks.
One cute design on the plate triggers another ideas. I bought paper tools to create eyes and mouth out of nori, but most of the time I just use scissors to shape the dry seaweed.
Now even though I have learned the tricks to make a smooth peeled egg, I still make funny egg designs for breakfast, lunch or dinner every now and then.”
Here are some of her very creative hard-boiled egg food creations.
