I totally want to do this. And I have eggs.

Um, the question in my mind is, why? What will you do with naked eggs?

Watch it jiggle, see it wiggle... Also put one in salt water to shrivel it up, or put it in the freezer to see what happens. If I don't mess with it too badly I may even hardboil it afterward. :-)

'She's beginning to shake!' 'She's beginning to shimmy!'

If you have the eggs, I've got the naked.






Er, never mind. :)

I admit these are two concepts I usually do not think of together. :-)

Are there concepts that you usually do casually associate with nudity, so that I may begin studying up on them? :)

Let us know how it goes!

This definitely requires a photo post.

We had hens growing up -- they'd lay them without shells naturally fairly often!

Oh wow! ...Not enough calcium in their diets, or what?

Me, I wanna make the bomb....

That too!

There's a Cosmic Egg and naked singularity joke somewhere here just out of my reach. You'll need to find someone who knows some astronomy. Good luck with that.

I think someone on my friends list is learning astronomy in school.

We have tons of eggs (ya know, having chickens and all), so I am definitely trying this!

For me it's one of those "because you can!" kinds of things. Mountain Dew jelly, recipe stolen from Kit, was another. :-)

Okay - I went and checked that out and, if ambition ever strikes me again, I might make some. I just have this vision of going to an SCA event with that and a jug of Gallo with a glow stick immersed in it. Ther is something about foods (and liquids) that have a 'radioactive' glow that would be fun to tweak people with.

So, if you put a naked egg in salt water to shrivel it up, the egg will still contain all the eggy goodness it did before, just with less water. I wonder what sort of interesting texture you get if you then scramble this concentrated egg?

Also, does the white get concentrated, or the yolk, or both?

Maybe you get a rock. That would be cool to try, actually.

There's a membrane between the white and the yolk, and both contain a lot of water, so if I had to guess (just pulling concepts out of my hat), the white gets concentrated first and then its concentration pulls water out of the yolk.

I really have to try this stuff.

NIFTY!
