The chicken sucks up the egg yolk?
Is it likely to be useful for Easter party egg dishes? I found a kitchen goods called "Egg Separator" at the 300 yen shop "3COINS" and bought it.
This goods is a set of "EGG SEPARATOR" and "EGG STAND". The yellow chicken-shaped "egg separator" has a hollow inside like a balloon. As the name suggests, it is useful when separating egg yolks and whites.

Let's use it now. First, break the egg and gently place it on a plate so that the yolk does not tear. Next, hold the egg separator and pinch the center tightly to bring it into contact with the surface of the yolk.
Separate the yolks from the whites
Pinch the center of the egg separator tightly and bring the mouth part into contact with the surface of the yolk.
As you relax your fingers, the yolks will be absorbed as the egg separator swells.
It takes only 2 seconds for the yolk to be sucked. When I used it for the first time, it was so quick that I was disappointed. What is this interesting!
Now let's release the inhaled yolk. Prepare a small plate to put the yolk in and slowly press the center of the egg separator with your finger.
When you press down on the chicken's stomach, the yolks pop out from the "buttocks".
Potato. "Spawning" is complete!
The appearance of the yolks moving in and out of the "chicken" was somewhat comical, and I laughed unintentionally while shooting. And the performance as an egg separator is also certain. Look, the yolks set aside are shining plumply without tearing. Older eggs may be more likely to tear when sucked up or spit out. Please try it with fresh eggs when you use it.
Even though I went in and out of the chicken's "buttocks", the yolk was not damaged.
An egg separator that cleanly separates white and yolk and seems to be very useful for making sweets such as meringue and custard cream. If you often cook egg dishes, why not give it a try? By the way, the price was 150 yen (excluding tax) at the store I purchased.
