• providing or obtaining a cooking device comprising a base having a top surface and a bottom surface, the base having at least one receptacle, wherein the at least one receptacle extends from the top surface of the base towards the bottom surface of the base forming a cavity having a base surface, the base comprising a susceptor and an insulator, wherein the susceptor is embedded in the insulator, wherein the susceptor is positioned to be in thermal contact with the base surface of the at least one receptacle;
• providing or obtaining, as part of the cooking device, at least one yolk cap having a top surface and a bottom surface, the at least one yolk cap comprising a phase change material and an insulator, wherein the phase change material is embedded in the insulator of the at least one yolk cap, wherein the phase change material is in thermal contact with the bottom surface of the at least one yolk cap, and wherein the at least one yolk cap is sized and shaped to cover at least a portion of the at least one receptacle;
• providing or obtaining, as part of the cooking device, a lid having a top surface and a bottom surface, the lid comprising an insulator and a shield, wherein the shield is embedded in the insulator of the lid and shaped to cover the receptacle in the base, wherein the bottom surface of the lid is sized and shaped to cover the at least one receptacle in the base;
• placing at least one cracked egg having at least one egg white and at least one egg yolk in the at least one receptacle of the base;
• placing the lid on the base with the at least one yolk cap aligned over the at least one egg yolk;
