Abstract
An egg separating apparatus for use in separating an egg white and an egg yolk when cracking a raw egg. More particularly, a cooking and/or baking apparatus for use in being able to concurrently separate a plurality of egg whites and a plurality of egg yolks at a relatively fast pace, thus saving a user valuable time. More particularly still, a relatively light weight and manageable kitchen apparatus for use in efficiently and effectively separating multiple egg whites and multiple egg yolks at once.
Claims3
An egg separating apparatus comprising:
- a) a substantially square support frame member defining an inner opening;
- b) a plurality of rod members that are attachably connected to said support frame member within said opening, wherein said rod members comprise a substantially semi-circular configuration with a substantially curved and rounded top surface in order to provide a substantially smooth exterior and thus prevent an egg yolk from breaking upon contact with said top surface;
- and
- c) a plurality of vents that are formed between said rod members, wherein said vents comprise a width distance that is relatively wide enough to allow at least one egg white to pass through said vents, but that is relatively narrow enough to prevent at least one egg yolk from passing through said vents.
