PARTS and FEATURES
USING YOUR RAPID EGG COOKER
SOFT, MEDIUM, AND HARD-BOILED EGGS:
The times listed below are guidelines so that you will know how long it will take to cook your eggs. The thermostat in the Rapid Egg Cooker will shut off automatically when the eggs are done – no additional timer is necessary. The following time guidelines are for medium to large eggs. Extra large or jumbo eggs may require additional time/water in the appliance to achieve the desired results.
If you like medium eggs firm: let the eggs sit covered in the Rapid Egg Cooker for a few extra minutes before removing them.
If you like completely hard-boiled eggs: let the eggs sit for an extra minute in the Rapid Egg Cooker after the buzzer sounds.
TIP: If you live at a higher altitude, add up to 25% more water to your Egg Cooker to ensure best results!
Timer Auto-Off
This Rapid Egg Cooker is equipped with a precision thermal sensor and will turn off automatically when the water has fully evaporated from the Heating Plate and when the buzzer sounds.
ATTENTION: Do not unplug the unit while cooking. If you unplug the unit while cooking, it will still be turned on when you plug it back in. If the unit does not detect water on the Heating Plate, it will automatically shut off and reset itself in a few seconds.
BOILING EGGS
1. Make sure the Rapid Egg Cooker is unplugged before starting. Pierce the larger end of each egg with the attached Pin at the bottom of the Measuring Cup (photo A).
2. Use the Measuring Cup to pour the appropriate corresponding amount of cold water into the Heating Plate (photo B).
3. Attach the Boiling Tray Handle to the Boiling Tray (photo C), and place the Boiling Tray on the Heating Plate. Place an egg in each designated spot in the Boiling Tray. Make sure that the holes in the larger end of the eggs are pointed upwards.
WARNING: Do not lock the Lid when using your Rapid Egg Cooker as this may cause injury when removing the Lid once the buzzer sounds.
4. Cover with the Lid and plug in the Rapid Egg Cooker. Press the Power Button to start cooking (photo D). The Indicator Light will turn on.
5. When the eggs are finished cooking (photo E), a buzzer will sound. Press the power switch to silence the buzzer. Actual cooking time will depend on number of eggs and desired style. Uncover Lid by using the Lid Handle and remove eggs with heat-resistant tongs. Do not touch the parts with bare hands as they will be hot!
6. Press the Power Button to silence the buzzer and remove your eggs (photo F).
Be careful when handling eggs. They will be hot!
Soak the eggs in ice water or run them under cold water immediately after removing them from the Rapid Egg Cooker to stop the cooking process, and to make peeling easier.
POACHING EGGS
1. Fill the Measuring Cup with cold water until it reaches the “Omelette/Poached” marking. Pour the water into the Heating Plate (photo A). Place the Boiling Tray on top of the Heating Plate.
2. Use cooking spray to lightly grease the Poaching Tray. Always place the Omelette Bowl or Poaching Tray on top of the Boiling Tray and never directly on the Heating Plate.
3. Break an egg into each section of the Poaching Tray (photo B). Cover with the Lid and plug in the Rapid Egg Cooker. Press the Power Button. When the buzzer sounds, your eggs will be ready to eat (photo C)!
WARNING: Do not lock the Lid when using your Rapid Egg Cooker as this may cause injury when removing the Lid once the buzzer sounds.
USING THE OMELETTE BOWL
1. Fill the Measuring Cup with cold water to the Poached / Omelette Line. Pour cold water onto the Heating Plate (photo A).
2. Use cooking spray to lightly grease the Omelette Bowl. Always place the Omelette Bowl on top of the Boiling Tray and never directly on the Heating Plate. Pour your eggs into the Omelette Bowl (photo B).
3. Cover with the Lid and plug in the Rapid Egg Cooker. Press the Power Button. When the buzzer sounds, your eggs will be ready to eat (photo C)! It is normal for the eggs to expand while cooking. They will contract once the Lid has been opened. Remove your omelette with a spatula.
For a drier omelette, leave the eggs in the Rapid Egg Cooker for an extra two minutes.
CLEANING and MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Heating Plate:
- Before cleaning or moving the appliance, make sure to unplug the Rapid Egg Cooker.
- Wash the Rapid Egg Cooker Accessories and Lid with warm, soapy water.

- Two different ways to clean the Heating Plate: Clean the Heating Plate with a mild solution of water and vinegar (10 parts water: 1 part vinegar) from time to time.
- Gently scrub the Heating Plate in a circular motion with a “magic eraser”-type sponge and a little warm water.
CAUTION:

FAQS
are the plastic parts that come into contact with the eggs BPA free?
For those who point out that you don’t eat the shell, this cooker also does shell-less eggs (poached, etc) so that’s not a valid response.
What is valid, though is that BPA-free is misleading–what chemical did they substitute for the BPA?
It’s commonly BPS, which is a close chemical analog. Search for the Scientific American article “BPA-Free Plastic Containers May Be Just as Hazardou
Is this product BPA free
Yes, the Dash Go Rapid Egg Cooker is BPA free.
does it cook jumbo eggs?
Yes it does. But the first time you do them cut one open… if they are not done add more water and re-run!
Has anyone used a Kill-a-Watt meter on one of these to determine how much power is used to hard boil (cook?) 2 or 6 eggs? What is the power rating?
Hope this helps. 360 watts is accurate. I measured it [3 amps x 120 volts = 360 watts] If you used this egg cooker for 2 hours and 45 minutes a day it would consume 1 kilowatt hour of electricity per day. What that costs you I don’t know, but here in Tampa it’s currently 10¢ per kilowatt-hour. If I use it everyday [30 days] that would be $3.00 a month.
What the AC voltage and the socket plug as we are based in hk?
120 v
Will liquid egg whites cook well in this?
no, you need to use whole eggs still in the shell
How do you prevent the egg from coming out of the pierced hole?
You pierce the large end of the egg then place the egg in the holder with large end facing up. Only time i had egg released from the shell was when the it had a crack in it. I had not noticed the crack before, but there wasnt much of the white of the egg that had seeped out.
How to mute the music?
Press “mute music” button
Is this bpa free?
Yes it says so in the description
how long does it take to cook
1-6 eggs takes 7 to 12 min depends on how you like it.
Can my baby use this product a lot?
No. It gets very hot.
the cup for the water can you buy that separately
comes included
Is this pfoa and ptfe free? i have parrots so i need to know that it’s safe for them to be around.
The eggs in the shell are boiled/steamed in shell. The plastic for poaching and omelets, I can’t say, as I bought this just for hard boiled. Which have been perfect.
How much water do you use to make an omelet?
1/4 of a cup of water for omelette slightly less for poached
When you soft boil an egg does the shell come off easily?
The shell comes off easily whether you soft or hard boil (well for me it does). Maybe since the hole you have to poke let’s the steam build inside and helps to separate the egg from shell. Just a guess.
how voltage 220 or 120?
Well here in America ALL household appliances work on 120 volts. Smh
What is the voltage of the product?
It plugs into a standard U.S. wall socket. 120V (+-)
How to best use this product?
If you’re going to make an omelette or poached eggs be sure to use cooking spray. If you’re making hard boiled eggs I always let mine sit covered inside the cooker for a few minutes because I like mine to be cooked all the way through.
how long does it take to cook
For 6 eggs, approx 12 min. Very fast and perfect hard boiled eggs.
Does it shut off automatically when the cooking is done?
No but buzzer sound will let you know when to shut off (which could be a little bit annoying but it helps you not to forget to shut it off). It all depends how much water you pour. For example, you put little water for soft boiled egg and more for hard boiled egg. Buzzer goes off whenever all the water evaporates. I am the seller and using one for myself too. It’s very easy to make boiled eggs, poached eggs and steamed veggies. Highly recommended!
How does it make omlets
it comes with a small booklet .Crack eggs in bowl add stuff you like pour in tray .bake enjoy
Can it work with 220V
yes.
