Eggs
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Could not set Humpty Dumpty back again.
--MOTHER GOOSE.
Try the freshness of eggs by putting them into cold water; those that
sink the soonest are the freshest.
Never attempt to boil an egg without watching the time-piece. Put the
eggs in boiling water. In three minutes eggs will be boiled soft; in
four minutes the white part will be cooked; in ten minutes they will be
hard enough for salad.
