Eggssentials Egg Poacher Insert 9-inch Stainless Steel Rack — 6 Nonstick Poaching Cups, Quick Steam

The Eggssentials Egg Poacher Insert is a 9-inch stainless-steel rack with six PFOA-free nonstick cups that steam and lift perfect poached eggs quickly and cleanly.

This compact poaching system converts ordinary pots and skillets into a reliable egg poacher, delivering evenly cooked eggs without the mess of silicone molds or sticky residue. Built from stainless steel with a durable nonstick surface and a cool-touch Bakelite handle, it’s designed for everyday use and simple cleanup. The unit fits pans with at least a 9-inch inside diameter and stacks away for minimal storage space.

How does this poacher make breakfast faster and neater?

The design concentrates steam around each egg so they cook evenly and quickly—typically under five minutes with just a half-inch of boiling water. Individual cups keep egg whites contained for neat removal, while the nonstick finish prevents sticking and speeds washing.

• Six 75 ml cups hold extra-large eggs without spilling.
• Nonstick coating allows eggs to slide out cleanly.
• Only ½ inch of boiling water required; cooks in under 5 minutes.
• Stackable cups and compact rack for easy storage.

Will it fit my cookware and how do I use it safely?

The rack measures 9 inches across and 2.5 inches tall including the center handle, so it fits pots and skillets with an internal diameter larger than nine inches. It is not compatible with pressure cookers or Instant Pot models that require pressure functions—use only under open-steam conditions.

• Fits pans/pots/skillets with internal diameter > 9 inches.
• Remove using the central Bakelite handle to avoid burns.
• Not suitable for pressure cooking or closed-lid pressure appliances.
• Dishwasher-safe for convenient cleanup.

How durable and food-safe is the construction?

Each cup is stainless steel finished with a PFOA-free nonstick coating to combine fast thermal transfer with a low-stick surface. Compared with silicone cups, stainless steel promotes even cooking and resists staining and long-term residue buildup.

• PFOA-free nonstick surface for safer everyday use.
• Stainless steel body transfers heat evenly for consistent results.
• Cups designed to withstand repeated use without warping.
• Patent design for a reliable, tested build (Patent D934,630).

Can the cups be used individually and how do I serve from them?

Yes: each poaching cup lifts out on its own so you can pour an individual egg directly onto toast or a plate. The cool-touch Bakelite handle helps you remove the entire rack, and cups can be handled separately for plating or stacking for storage.

• Individual cup removal for single-serve plating.
• Pour eggs straight from the cup onto dishes for tidy presentation.
• Stackable cups conserve cabinet space when stored.
• Removable rack handle speeds transfer from pan to counter.

Who is this for: Home cooks who want reliably shaped poached eggs without specialized pans, anyone seeking a compact breakfast solution that fits a variety of cookware, and families who value quick cleanup and durable construction. If you prefer gentler steaming and cleaner results than silicone molds provide, the Eggssentials poacher offers a practical, space-saving option for high-protein mornings.
