Poorly Made Egg Ring
The rings I received look like they were made with 19th century technology except for the coating. It is not a continuous metal ring but sheet steel rolled into a ring and crimped. The edges of the ring are crudely rolled to give it strength and this makes for an unappealing appearance. One of the two rings is so far from being flat that it allows egg to escape before it has time to cook. I think "ringoid" would be a better description.
Try one of the silicone rubber ones, they cost more but work really well and clean easilly.
Breakfast sandwich
I love these rings for making my own breakfast sandwiches (English muffin, egg, Candian bacon/sausage, cheese). However, if your cook surface, pan, or griddle is not completely flat, egg will seep under the edge of the ring. Be sure to grease or spray on cooking spray or the egg will stick even though these say non-stick. Without a handle on the ring for lifting it from the pan when hot, I use tongs to remove the ring once the egg has set.
Egg Muffins at home!
We have yet to find the "perfect" egg rings, but these work very well. (They are superior to others we have tried.) Some egg oozes under the rings when cooking. To minimize this, we preheat the rings in the pan before adding the egg. It's not perfect, but it seems to help and oozing really is minimal. There's a little finessing to get the eggs out of the rings. While these are non-stick, we still spray the rings with oil to help with releasing the eggs once done. Cleaning is relatively easy -- We clean up egg residue and pop them in the dishwasher. No problems with the nonstick finish coming off or rusting like we've experienced with other rings we had. Have had these about 6 months and use them frequently. They get stars in our house! (reserving 5 stars for the "perfect" egg rings.)
