Egg – shaper + cooker

The egg shaper Dreamland is yet another addition to bento-cheering accessories and it’s not the same as the ones that shape whole hard boiled eggs.

This one requires the separation of the yolk from the white as the first step. Then pour the white into the cavity and place the Dreamland into a pot of water to cook. Boil for 15 minutes if using cool water or 12 minutes if using hot water. When the white is ready, pour in the yolk and cook again in the pot for another 8 minutes. Here are more pictures on the procedure (but with Japanese text). Dreamland is also meant for making + shaping jelly.

Thanks for your company this week, have a restful weekend!

    Wow!!! that is so cool, in principle, but yeah trust the japanese to make something so cool, except also trust them to make a woman’s life more complicated in the mornings for the sake of others aesthetics!

    hi hi! after my 3rd attempt, i finally made it right. :D oil all pieces. seperate whites and yolks. need 5 large eggs.. (jumbo might be just right..) place the white in the compartment with the lid and shaper still attached. remove after 15 minutes. remove shaper from lid. pour yolk in middle of white where the “hole” is. place lid back and i boiled for 30 minutes.. the yolk was wet until this point and i do not want raw yolk!! they are very hot when pushing from the bottom, so be careful! this is definetly a good investment. very pretty. o\^ v ^/o
