Abstract
An egg cooker includes a base band shaped to be placed on a cooking surface. A cover is connected to the base band. A tunnel within the cover is sized to allow contents of an opened egg to be poured through the tunnel and onto the cooking surface. A length of the tunnel is selected so that when the cover is mounted on the cooking surface, a base at a bottom of the tunnel is elevated over the cooking surface to a height that allows a white of the opened egg to pass under the base of the tunnel to the cooking surface under the cover, while retaining a top of a yolk of the opened egg within an inside circumference of the tunnel.

An egg cooker, comprising:
- a base band shaped to be placed on a cooking surface;
- a cover connected to the base band;
- a tunnel within the cover, the tunnel sized large enough to allow both a white of an opened egg and a yolk of the opened egg to be poured through the tunnel so that the white of the opened egg can come into contact with the cooking surface and both the white of the opened egg and the yolk of the opened egg can be cooked by the cooking surface without being separated;
- and
- a handle connected to the cover;
- wherein a length of the tunnel is selected so that when the cover is mounted on the cooking surface, a base at a bottom of the tunnel is elevated over the cooking surface to a height that allows the white of the opened egg to pass under the base of the tunnel to the cooking surface under the cover, while retaining a top of the yolk of the opened egg within an inside circumference of the tunnel.
An egg cooker, comprising:
- a base band shaped to be placed on a cooking surface;
- a cover connected to the base band;
- and
- a plurality of tunnels within the cover, each tunnel within the plurality of tunnels being sized large enough to allow both a white of an opened egg and a yolk of the opened egg to be poured through the tunnel so that the white of the opened egg can come into contact with the cooking surface and both the white of the opened egg and the yolk of the opened egg can be cooked by the cooking surface without being separated;
- wherein a length of each tunnel is selected so that when the cover is mounted on the cooking surface, a base at a bottom of each tunnel is elevated over the cooking surface to a height that allows the white of the opened egg to pass under the base of each tunnel to the cooking surface under the cover, while retaining a top of the yolk of the opened egg within an inside circumference of each tunnel.
