Goldeneggs were all raging a few years ago. The idea is that if you turn a super fast raw egg using a pair of old stockings, you can blow up the yellow and blur from the inside. Cook as the egg leads to a beautiful, goldenHard egg.

The test: To give his best chance, I spun my egg 50 times. But still, there were no yellow pices. My cracked egg in boiling water (which may have lived or not of the spinning), but I could say that nothing was "gilded" about my egg when I cut it open, even if it looked like In Yolk had moved closer to the summit.

Although the cracker started cutting in my slice of Provolone, it took several rollers back and first to make the smallest cup, and halfway on one side, the cracker broke. To make a nice place of cheese, I should sacrifice several Ritz, and it's just not worth it for me when it's so easy to grab a knife or tearing cheese with my hands.

One of the most impressive hacks to come out of5-minute craftsmanship Shows a bouquet of bowling, popcorn and oil in a pan and outgoing rainbow color popcorn. Seems super cool! But there are clear problems with this recipe.

The test: Right away, I thought "umm ... no." There was absolutely no way to melt a bouquet of bowling from different colors in a saucepan and find yourself with individual popcorn pieces.

The instructions that I read left the first side cook for 8 to 10 minutes, then go back and make the second side for five. He also said to put it on medium-low heat, so it could have made a difference because my cookie burned.

Skiping the burned parts, however, the middle of my biscuit also had a weird texture and steamed - it was not Gooey in any case.May be It could work if you have done it on low heat, but it did not work for me.
