  4. Avoid contact with moving parts.
  5. Do not operate any electrical appliance with a damaged power cord or power plug or operate it after the appliance malfunctions, or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
  6. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electrical shock or injury to persons.
  7. Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes.
  8. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or allow it to come into contact with hot surfaces including the stove.
  9. Do not place appliance on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven or microwave.
  10. Do not operate Egg Cooker in water or under running water.
  11. Do not use the appliance for anything other than its intended use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plugin anyway or force it into the outlet. This could result in injury or electric shock.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONSA short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:

  1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
  2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.POWER CORD SAFETY TIPS
  3. Never pull or yank on a cord or the appliance.
  4. To insert the plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into an outlet.
  5. To disconnect the appliance, grasp the plug and remove it from the outlet.
  6. Before each use, inspect the power cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced, and the power cord replaced. Please contact Chefman Customer Support for assistance.
  7. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and causes it to fray and break.

DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE IF THE POWER CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF THE APPLIANCE WORKS  INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

HELPFUL TIPS & SUGGESTIONS

  • When purchasing eggs, choose only those eggs that are stored in a refrigerator case. Refrigerate eggs until ready to use. (For  baking, eggs may be placed in a bowl of warm water for 5 to 10 minutes to bring them safely to “room temperature” for  best baking results.)
  • Don’t know if your eggs are fresh? Place them in a bowl of salted cool water. If they sink, they are fresh – if they float, they are not.
  • To prevent the development of bacteria in cooked egg dishes, eggs should not be left at room temperature longer than 2  hours (count preparation as well as serving time.)
  • Chill and refrigerate hard-cooked eggs immediately after removing them from the Egg Cooker. For best results, plunge cooked eggs into a bowl of ice water—this will stop the cooking process and prevent a dark ring from developing around the yolk.
  • Is the egg hard-cooked or raw? Can’t recall which ones you have cooked? Play spin the egg. A cooked egg will spin, a raw egg will wobble.
  • Fresher eggs (less than a week old) are harder to peel than those a little older.
  • To peel hard-cooked eggs easily, roll gently on the counter, using the palm of your hand to crack. Dip in a bowl of cold water and begin peeling from the larger end.
  • Hard-cooked eggs in the shell will keep for up to one week properly refrigerated. Hard-cooked eggs out of the shell should be used immediately.
  • Hard-cooked eggs that have been colored and displayed decoratively should not be consumed – enjoy their colorful display and discard. Cook extra eggs for eating and consider the discarded eggs an inexpensive way to decorate.
  • To serve soft or medium-cooked eggs out of the shell, break the shell through the center of the egg with a knife. Use a  teaspoon to scoop the egg out of each half onto a serving dish or piece of toast.
  • To serve soft or medium-cooked eggs in a cup, place the egg in a cup, small end down. Slice off the large end, about one inch from the top, using a knife or egg scissors. Eat from the shell with a teaspoon or serve with toast strips to dip in the soft yolk.

RECIPES

DEVILED EGGSPerfectly cooked eggs from the Chefman Egg Cooker make our version of this American picnic classic simple to prepare.

Makes 12 deviled egg halves:6 hard-cooked eggs, completely cooled3 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard¼ teaspoon Kosher salt3-5 drops hot sauce

  1. Remove shells from eggs and discard. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Wipe the knife with a paper towel after slicing each egg, to prevent the yolk from showing on the white. Remove yolks and arrange whites on a plate.
  2. Place the egg yolks in the work bowl of a mini-prep processor and pulse to break up, 5 times. Scrape the work bowl. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and hot sauce to taste. Process for 10 seconds on grind; scrape the work bowl. Process 10  seconds on chop; scrape the work bowl.
  3. Spoon the deviled yolk mixture into the reserved egg white halves. Or place the deviled yolk mixture in a 1-quart freezer-weight plastic bag. Cut about ¼ inch off one corner of the bag. Use the bag to squeeze the yolk mixture into each egg\white  half. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Just before serving, sprinkle with paprika or chopped fresh parsley or chives.

SERVING TIPS:

  • If you don’t have a “deviled egg” plate, make a bed of alfalfa or radish sprouts on a plate to steady eggs for serving.
  • To transport and store deviled eggs safely for a picnic, make filling and place in a sealed food storage bag. Place egg whites in a separate storage container.Chill both in the cooler with ice. When you are ready to serve eggs, pipe the chilled filling into the chilled whites.

EGG SALADThis basic egg salad is great for sandwiches. It can be “dressed up” by adding chopped green onion or shallot, chopped pickles,  chopped sun-dried tomatoes or chopped fresh herbs.

Makes about 2 cups/4 servings:6 hard-cooked eggs, completely cooled½ stalk celery, about 4 inches, cut in 1-inch pieces¼ cup low-fat mayonnaise2 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard¼ teaspoon kosher salt⅛ teaspoon freshly ground white or black pepper

  1. Remove shells from eggs and discard. Cut eggs in quarters and reserve.
  2. Place the celery in the work bowl of a food processor. Pulse to chop finely, about 15 times; scrape the work bowl.
  3. Add the quartered eggs to the work bowl; pulse 5 times to chop roughly.Add mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pulse until mayonnaise and mustard are completely mixed in and desired texture is reached, 10 – 20 times.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR ELECTRIC EGG COOKER

  • Always unplug your Chefman Egg Cooker from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
  • Wash lid, cooking, and poaching trays in hot, soapy water or in the top shelf of a dishwasher.
  • Clean the heating plate with a paper towel moistened with one tablespoon white vinegar. This removes any mineral deposits left behind from the water and also works as an antibacterial agent. You may wipe the heating plate using water and a damp cloth if desired.
  • NOTE: If the unit is not cleaned with white vinegar (see above) on a regular basis, minerals naturally occurring in water will build up and cause discoloration of eggshells. However, discoloration of the eggshells does not affect the taste of the eggs.
  • Wipe main body housing with a damp cloth. DO NOT immerse in water.
  • Place clean cooking tray, poaching tray, beaker, and egg holders inside the egg cooker for storage.
