I think Max addressed that in one of his older videos. Supposedly, ancient and medieval recipes used to be written primarily by cooks FOR cooks, so when the author says "add enough salt" or "knead until it looks right", they just kinda take it for granted that the reader knows what they mean and assume they don't have to explain. I don't think it was until the invention of the printing press that we actually start seeing recipes meant for anyone and everyone to try, but I could be wrong.

I need thorough instructions and measurements, as I've got no cooking background, no intuition, and am on the autism spectrum. Found recipes with delicious looking pictures and 5 star reviews like "take a good amount of flour, add enough water, some eggs and sugar as you like [...] bake until done". ---___--- PS: even worse when they do have precise measurements, but they're wrong. Like those TV cooks. "Take a pinch of salt"

I'm not a doctor but have studied immunology at a uni level (and have been to culinary school) and if I had to guess as to why you're fine with thoroughly cooked egg whites, it is because the part of the egg white you're allergic to is a protein which becomes denatured by the cooking process, this changes the shape of the protein and it no longer fits inside the receptor for the particular immune cell that recognises it as something to mount an immune response to (the reason for your allergic reaction is said immune response). 🤷🏻‍♀

Egg protein (and to a certain extent all animal proteins, but eggs do it FAST) denature and then clump when heated. So allergies are because your body is looking for a certain shape, but cooking changes it's shape enough that your immune system gives it a pass. This can happen with milk as well, so my son was allergic to raw cow milk as a baby but cheese and food with cooked milk never gave him any pause. His doctor explained like turning cotton bolls into thread and then cloth, it looks and feels nothing like what it started as.

@@mwater_moon2865 There are two common allergens in egg whites, and one of them denatures around 80°C whereas the other is more stable, so if you’re only allergic to ovalbumin you can have eggs that have been cooked to a high enough temperature whereas if you’re allergic to ovomucoid you can’t have any eggs (or at least not from that particular species-other kinds of eggs might or might not trigger an allergic reaction) no matter how cooked they are.

Everything that humans can be allergic to is in fact a protein. Also in pollen or animal allergies it is the proteins that trigger immune reactions. So when you cook a protein it changes shape (like many others here already mentioned). Like many other people I am allergic to pollen. But many are unaware that similar proteins are also found in fruits that grow on trees, thus causing cross-reactions (apples, pears, cherries etc). So, cooked apple pies are completely fine for many people with these allergies (luckily!). Plants from the pea and wheat family can also have very potent allergen proteins. For those allergic to pollen cause severe allergies, for example raw peanuts or bean sprouts.

If you’re only allergic to ovalbumin and not ovomucoid (the two most common eggwhite proteins to be allergic to), the reason you can tolerate cooked eggs but not raw (and also not soft-boiled) is that ovalbumin decomposes around 80°C, so anything cooked to a higher temperature throughout is safe for you to eat. If you can, see if you can get tested for allergies to other kinds of eggs (e.g. quail, duck, goose), because your allergy could be specific to hen eggs or it could be more general.

That’s so interesting. There’s a restaurant near me that serves deep fried deviled eggs. It seems to be a pretty standard modern recipe but they deep fry the whites before filling and top with candied bacon bits. I’d never seen it before I had no idea the original deviled eggs were fried. This is making me feel like I want to get creative on Easter 😂

So I don't know how relevant this is, but I'm from Germany and here deviled eggs are called Senfeier (mustard eggs) afaik. They're called that because they kinda smell like sulphur if prepared this way. Maybe that could have something to do with why they're called "devilled", since brimstone/sulphur=devil?

From Germany: LOL! Deviled eggs were the party snack of my childhood and youth, in the 50s and 60s of last century. Since the 70s and 80s we started to do so-called Marble Eggs, from Chinese recipes (hard-boiled eggs cooled down, then the shell cracked gently with a spoon, then cooked a second time in a mixture of tea, star aniseed, salt, soy sauce- leave them to soak over night ... When you peel them there is a beautiful marble pattern on the egg white, and they are very savory.😃 The skill lies in the gentle cracking of the shell😃

When my daughter was in school, some of her classes would use “food days” to emphasize time periods, cultures, regions, etc they were learning about. One year the class had to bring food that related to Shakespearean England, specifically hand foods that may have been served as snacks outside the Globe theater. I sent Medieval Farsed Eggs from Good Huswife’s Jewell, using farsed stuffing instructions from same source, figuring not much would have changed over the years on the snack food front. The eggs were halved and stuffing made with the yolks and all the other stuffing ingredients, then the halves were put back together, tied with string to hold together, and boiled. Definitely something different 😁

For a while, I lived in a town called Boone, Iowa. At Christmas time, the butchers at the local gocery store made up a holiday sausage called "Sweedish Potato Sausage." The store had an old fashioned butchers counter, with glass cases displaying all the cuts and there was always a couple of butchers on hand to be of service. The sausage had an unusual favor that my husband didn't like, but, I found interesting. It always sold out quickly. I've always wondered about the history of this dish.

For those who want a close equivalent to Costmary - the standard little white garden daisy is from the same family and completely edible (both the flowers and the leaves, although I'd recommend leaves for this recipe). If you are foraging for them, best not to get them from places close to traffic and pollution - but other than that, you're good to go. They have a fresh, lemony and slightly bitter taste. If you're new to foraging, please don't dig up the whole plant or pluck all the leaves and flowers: just take a couple from each one you find. Wouldn't need many for this recipe anyway - they have a very strong flavour.

Something about seeing him take the first bite is very wholesome. He just has such a positive expectation to every bite and enthusiasm on his face. Where as I always expect the worse so I look pretty dead inside trying something.

I've made Platina's recipe (except I also left the eggs open for ease of frying) and my husband and I both really liked them. The verjuice cuts that richness, the fresh and aged cheeses (I used parm and chevre) were a nice addition, and all the spices and herbs and the sweet/sour sauce give a really nice complexity. But I did have some issues with burning while pan-frying so I'm definitely going to use your oven technique next time. Brilliant!

If you like eggs you could make little "Fliegenpilze" (fly amanita) out of whole cooked eggs, a cap made out of a piece of tomato and little dots of butter for the white spots. You can also add a face by putting cloves in the egg. They where a hit at childrens parties back in the GDR.

A trick for making them easier to peel is to make the water more basic (less acid) than the egg. There are two ways to do this: 1. use older eggs, the gas exchange through the shell results in higher carbon dioxide in the egg, making it acidic. Or 2. add a tablespoon of baking soda to the water. Works even with the chicken-laid-'em-this-morning eggs.

I have chickens (hence, very fresh eggs) and although you may be right about the chemistry, I've never had a problem with peeling. I cook them as above, making sure they are immediately plunged into the cold water from the hot, and cooling as Max recommends. I've noticed that sometimes (and you probably have an educated guess about why this occurs) they become more difficult to peel after, say, 3 or 4 days in the fridge. When I learned that eggshells are actually porous, it occurred to me that dryness might be a main factor. So now I simply put the eggs in a bowl of water for 30-60 seconds and they peel perfectly.

So glad to see you use the BEST method of boiling eggs!

Cochineal was also the dye used for the scarlet found in British officer and Sergeant's regimental coats, before chemical dyes were developed. Madder was used for the coats for the privates and corporals. 😉

Coloring the inside of eggs for (unironic) Easter Deviled Eggs is having a comeback. For several years now, we soak the boiled egg whites with beets (pink), cabbage (blue), tumeric (yellow), or just food dye before drying and then filling them with the seasoned yolks. Depending on whether you slice the eggs first or how long they soak, you can get some cool effects.

Minced onion, pickle relish, miracle whip, small amount of yellow mustard, salt and pepper mash together refill egg white halves sprinkle with smoked paprika.

There was a tradition of a devilled egg day at Cyan, the creators of the game series, so they put their favorite recipe for the eggs into one of the games as a secret to find. It technically has three recipes included for mild, hot, and "oh god where's the bathroom" levels of spicy for the fillings.

They were as described in which the eggs were rejoined after stuffing, but they were then wrapped in streaky bacon and quickly deep fried to cook the bacon. I remember getting quite ill wolfing down a whole plate of these, but it was so worth it.

8:55 Cochineal wasn't really something new - Polish cochineal was used as a dye in Europe for centuries (not sure if it was used as a food dye), the Mexican cochineal was cheaper so it became much more popular.

They are heavier and stronger in taste, though (and with a larger yolk), so quail eggs are sometimes a better substitute for some recipes. Also, the baked in factor is actually really common; the proteins undergo a change when slowly cooked throughout with a high enough heat like when done in an oven. Something like a meringue or angel food cake may still give you problems, though, so be careful and good luck!
