  1. While it's true that egg whites pull away from the shell when coagulated at high heat, you don't want it too high otherwise the shell will crack. You want to bring those eggs to room temperature at the very least before you boil them so that the temperature difference isn't so extreme. Maybe also don't throw the eggs into like a super rolling boil either. You can bring them up to that temp once they've been in for about 20 seconds.

  2. I'd always heard you shouldn't run a just-off-the-burner nonstick pan under cold water, as is done here, as it'd warp the pan and potentially damage the nonstick. Are one or both of those myths?

  3. I follow the ATK steamed "boiled" eggs directions. Except I live at ~6,000 feet above sea level so water boils at like 202° here so I have to add a couple minutes. I bet I would have to add 90 seconds to this.
