Separating Egg Yolk using a Water Bottle

I finally tried it.  I saw this on facebook and just HAD to try it.

You just start out with your egg(s), two plates or containers, and a small empty water bottle.


Break open your egg and put the egg on one of the plates.


Now take your water bottle and put it next to the egg yolk and gently squeeze.


The egg yolk will be sucked up into the bottle.  What is nice is that you can put more than one in the bottle at a time if you want.



So now you have the yolk in the bottle but now you need to get it out.  Put the bottle with the yolk on the empty plate and gently squeeze again.  This will expel the egg yolk. It's that simple.


If you have more than one egg yolk in the bottle, just repeat the process until they are all expelled.  Don't try to expel them all in one shot.


I noticed that my egg whites didn't have any yolk in them (and it was really quick to do) but that some of the egg white came up with the egg yolk but that didn't bother me.

Then I looked at my separated egg and wondered what to do with it since I didn't want to throw it out.....so I combined them again and cooked it in the microwave and had an egg and cheese sandwich for dinner.  :)
