Abstract
An apparatus for assisting in removal of the eggshell of an hardboiled egg comprising a first body, a second body detachably couplable to the first body, upon coupling the first and second bodies form an inner cavity for receiving a hardboiled egg, wherein the inner cavity comprises an inner wall complementary to the shape of the hardboiled egg, the inner cavity is arranged to provide a space between the hardboiled egg and the inner wall, and the eggshell peeling apparatus further comprises at least one water outlet in fluidic communication with the inner cavity. A method of peeling eggshell of a hardboiled using the said apparatus is also disclosed.
Claims15
An apparatus for assisting removal of the eggshell of a hardboiled egg, comprising:
- a first body portion;
- a second body portion detachably couplable to the first body portion, upon coupling the first and second body portions form an inner cavity for receiving a hardboiled egg;
- wherein the inner cavity comprises an inner wall complementary to the shape of the hardboiled egg, the inner cavity is arranged to provide a space between the hardboiled egg and the inner wall, and
- the eggshell peeling apparatus further comprises one or more water outlets in fluidic communication with the inner cavity.
A method of removing an eggshell of a hardboiled egg comprising the steps of:
- a) providing an apparatus according to any one of the preceding claims;
- b) placing the hardboiled egg in the second body portion;
- c) filling the apparatus with water for providing a dampening effect for the collision between the eggshell and the inner wall;
- d) coupling the first body portion with the second body portion with the first and second coupling ends in complement to each other;
- e) shaking the apparatus thus fracturing the eggshell of the hardboiled egg;
- f) separating the first body portion from the second body portion;
- g) removing the hardboiled egg from the eggshell peeling apparatus;
- and
- h) removing the fractured eggshell from the hardboiled egg,
- wherein the step of shaking the apparatus causes the eggshell to collide repeatedly with the inner wall of the inner cavity while induces a gradual evacuation of the water through the one or more water outlets.
