FUN Silicone Egg and Pancake Rings: Heart, Star, and Circle

February 6, 2017 By Joi Sigers

Silicone Heart, Star, and Circle Egg and Pancake Rings

Somewhere along the way, I have developed an obsession with silicone kitchen gadgets and gizmos. The material seemingly lasts forever, is a cinch to clean and work with, and is almost always fun and colorful (two of my favorite life ingredients).  The Silicone Heart, Star, and Round Egg (or Pancake) Rings pictured here aren’t anything but awesome.

I love them!

Roasted Sweet Potato Pancake
In the picture above and below, I used the heart-shaped ring to make Sweet Potato Pancakes (click the link for the recipe). They turned out beautifully – the pancakes at no point tried to stick. I’ve used these rings with traditional pancakes and, again, they didn’t even think about sticking to the ring.

I’ve also used the rings for eggs (as any self-confessed egg fanatic would do) and they couldn’t work any better than they do. NO sticking whatsoever. I’ve used metal egg rings in the past that did stick – even when buttered – but these silicone rings don’t even come close to sticking.

Eggs with Silicone Ring

I love the looks of a perfectly round fried egg. I don’t know, it just does something for me.  You can see pictures of the perfectly round fried eggs in my Krusteaz Gluten-Free Mixes review.  A few of these well-rounded guys are keeping company with a gluten-free waffle.

I’ve had a lot of fun with the heart-shaped and star-shaped rings as well. The heart-shaped one will (of course) serve me well on Valentitne’s Day and the star one will come in particularly handy on the Fourth of July.

Who are we kidding, though, I use them the rest of the year, as well. They’re just too fun not to!

Find the Silicone Heart, Star, and Round Egg (or Pancake) Rings on Amazon for just under $10.

Silicone Egg Poachers (Review)

January 10, 2016 By Joi Sigers

HighFive Silicone Egg Poachers
I fell madly in love with cooking when I was 19 – never-mind how long ago. Let’s just say it means I’ve been an avid cook for many moons. Many suns. However, even after so many moons and suns, I’ve never been fond of poaching eggs. I absolutely love them, mind you, but the whole process just does not float my boat.

That has completely changed this past week, however. I was sent a bright, beautiful set of Silicone Egg Poachers (from HighFive Naturals) and my boat isn’t just floating, it has set sail.

Poached Egg
Health Benefits of Poached Eggs:

A poached egg contains only 70 calories, as opposed to fried eggs or scrambled eggs which are often accompanied by butter, milk, and cheese. A large poached egg supplies more than 6 grams of high-quality protein, 4.7 grams of mostly unsaturated fat and significant amounts of vitamin D, antioxidant compounds and choline – a nutrient essential to Healthy Brain Function.

Product Description:

  • Set Of 5 egg poachers in bright, vibrant colors. 
  • Easy and fun to use.
  • Innovative design allows you to make perfectly poached eggs every single time. 
  • Clear, concise, and easy instructions takes the guesswork out of poaching eggs.
  • FDA Approved Food-Safe Silicone, BPA-Free, Temp Resistant form -40 to 450˚F, Dishwasher, Microwave, Freezer and Oven Safe.
  • Highly mulit-functional: Use For Baking And Molding, Making Quiche, Custards, Mini-Cheesecakes, Creme Brûlée, Melting Chocolate and Even Steaming Vegetables.
  • Your Purchase is Backed by HighFive Naturals Lifetime Money-Back 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee.

HighFive Silicone Egg Poachers
These beautiful little Silicone Egg Poachers take something that has never been particularly fun to make and does the impossible – it makes you actually WANT to make poached eggs.

Poached eggs are delicious all by themselves, served with a meat of your choice, or with a piece of toasted bread.  They’re also delicious served atop asparagus. Add a little Hollandaise sauce and you’ve got a party.

This set of five silicone poacher “baskets” comes with instructions for easily (and I mean EASILY) poaching eggs – several at a time, even. How cool’s that?

HighFive Silicone Egg Poachers

Simply bring water to a boil; reduce to medium. Grease the inside of the poacher with olive oil, add the egg and carefully place into the boiling water (about 4 inches of water is necessary). Cover the pot with a lid – I used a glass pie plate because none of my lids are see through, and I wanted to see what was going on.

Cook 4-6 minutes, then carefully remove the poachers (I used my spider but a slotted spoon would be fine).  Flip the poacher upside down to remove the egg or wiggle it out with a spoon.

You can find the beautiful set of 5 colorful Silicone Egg Poachers on Amazon. I highly recommend them!

Other HighFive Naturals Reviews on Get Cooking:

  • Fun Lego Candy Molds!
  • Beautiful Silicone Pot Holders (one is pictured above with an egg poacher – I use these pot holders daily)
  • Silicone Cooking Gloves – very, very cool.
