Do You Wash The Pan Up?

[spathiphyllum]

You boil an egg on top of the stove in a pan. The egg doesn't crack. So effectively, you've put some boiling water in a pan with an egg.

Do you wash up the pan, after the egg has boiled?

[Rockrose]

Yes because the egg releases calcium carbonate so of course otherwise it may taint other food cooked in that pan

[naomi24]

Of course. It goes in the dishwasher.

[spathiphyllum]

Like the kettle?

[Rockrose]

Your a minger if you don't!

[spathiphyllum]

Eh?

[naomi24]

The kettle?

[spathiphyllum]

Yes the kettle has a limescale build up. you know the left over from water?

[naomi24]

I descale the kettle - and I don't boil eggs in it.

[spathiphyllum]

What i'm asking is, is the scale due to the water, or the egg?

[Old_Geezer]

Yes. It's not like it'll take long.

[marval]

I wash the pan afterwards.

Scale due to water

[sanmac]

I cook my eggs in the dish-washer; it precludes the calcification of a sauce-pan.

[Dodger666]

When I boil an egg the saucepan goes in the washing up.
