easy way to blow an egg

You’ll Need:
• Eggs in an egg carton
• Straight pin or tapestry needle
• Teaspoon (from your silverware drawer, not for measuring)
• Wooden skewer (they sell great ones at IParty)
• Drinking glass
• Drinking Straws

Leave the eggs in the carton while you pierce them. Place the pin point-down against the top of the egg and lightly tap the pin head with the back of the spoon until it pierces the egg. Insert the wooden skewer into the egg and gently press it down until it pierces the bottom of the egg.

Remove the egg from the carton, hold it over the glass, and push the skewer up and down through the contents several times to break the yolk. Remove the skewer and place a straw over the hole. Blow through the straw until the contents of the egg are emptied into the glass. Rinse the blown eggs in warm water and dry with a paper towel or let them dry in a clean egg carton.
