What's your success rate?

Mine's sub 50% at the moment and I hate myself for it.

Oh dear Lib. Oh dear.

I think I've only unsuccessfully cracked two in my life? So, whatever that is percentage wise.

I might try and cock it up in solidarity though.

I'm pretty good at not getting shell in my eggs.

It happens though.

I’m confused about what we’re defining as success here? Getting the contents of the egg in a bowl without bits of shell? Doing it one handed? Keeping the yolk intact? Separating the yolk???

How are you breaking the shell? Just a couple of little taps on the edge of the worktop, both thumbnails into the crack and prise apart low over the bowl so it doesn’t drop far

I hear that tapping them hard on your forehead is a sure fire way to crack them cleanly.

I think that because it's just such an uninteresting process I just don't care.

If the outcome is important then the process for achieving the outcome needs to become important
