you there’s still one week left to win
this galaxy s 9 plus smart phone it
could be yours there’s a link down in
the description to get your name on the
list to qualify
best of luck we’ll see you around hey
guys I am Nate we are at the dome once
again with another experiment using
molten salt we’re going to see what
happens if you combine molten salt with
eggs in a couple of different ways we’ll
see what happens if we pour a molten
salt on to an egg we’ll probably try
dropping a whole egg into our crucible
full of molten salt and then I think
we’ll try pouring some molten salt onto
our frying pan and then see if we can
fry an egg on that salt we have all of
our equipment and supplies and eggs
our salt is just about melted so let’s
put some eggs into our little pot here
I’m gonna try something a little odd I’m
gonna try having two cracked eggs and
two whole eggs and I’m just gonna pour
the salt on top and that way we’ll be
able to see the effect on both of those
at once
ready three two one whoo something
cracked immediately I’m not sure what
that was just right as I poured it into
the pot something made a cracking noise
and I assume that was something from the
moisture in the eggs themselves tell you
what that does not smell really great
that egg show is still in place this egg
shell is partially not in place exactly
cooked it’s still very hot so of course
things could still be cooking in there
uncooked inside there they try and dump
the whole thing out salt and eggs onto
our frying pan here that works pretty
good
so we’ve got all of our salt right here
we’ve got some I’m gonna say overcooked
egg thank you
this part it looks like we’ve got some
fairly nicely cooked egg mixed with raw
all right we’re gonna drop an egg into
the molten salt in the crucible and
quickly back away because I don’t know
what’s gonna happen three two one Wow
[Applause]
let’s do another one three two one
I guess I did cool down a little bit
oh that smells so bad who’s our egg
already partially cooked through the
first egg exploded violently the second
[Music]
so our egg shell kind of got coated in
some of the melted salt definitely stuck
to it a little bit it’s kind of gross so
this is the shell with the salt stuck to
it this is the actual egg which burned
in parts and is raw in parts you can
squish it it’s a step beyond eggs over
it easy right there so now I’ve got a
final batch of salt heating up in the
first I’m gonna pour that right on to
our frying pan and then I’m gonna try
and crack an egg onto that and see if I
can cook the egg get a nice fried egg
maybe even try and flip it over in the
that looks so pretty and glowing orange
liquid all right let’s let that salt
cool down just a bit because I’m not
trying to destroy these eggs
I do want a hot surface but I want to
actually cook them and possibly eat one
so I think as long as it’s still glowing
orange it’s probably too hot I’m going
to try cracking one right there
some get a good spot
well it is spilling off the side a
little bit but we’ve got some nice
cooked looking egg at the bottom I’m
just not sure if there will be enough
heat to cook all the way through for me
to try and really get this cooked I also
don’t know anything about the nonstick
properties of salt so this could be very
stuck or not at all stuck actually seems
to come off pretty easily moving itself
[Music]
I don’t know if that piece is hot so it
might not be doing anything to cook it
it might just be resting on it this is
definitely starting to get cooked
through let’s see if I can flip this egg
over I don’t think I’ll be able to
smoothly get under it so it’s gonna get
a little torn up as I try mmm my salt
might be cooling down a little too much
it’s just completely falling apart so I
don’t think I can really flip anything
that yolk isn’t even a little bit cooked
when this portion of the egg looks like
it has cooked not really a good-looking
cooked egg but it’s something
Haseley fried egg actually pretty good
[Music]
very salty I might have added too much
salt because it might have already been
salted in the test that said that I
I think it did I think it picked up some
of the salt using molten salt to cook
eggs in a few different varieties we
tried pouring molten salt into a pot
that had some cracked eggs and some
uncracked eggs in it something cracked
the moment I poured the salt into that
I’m not sure what that was maybe just
one of the shells breaking open maybe
that was some steam forming harder
littell I really liked the look of the
glowing orange molten salt surrounding
the eggs that was pretty pretty cool we
then tried dropping a whole egg into our
crucible full of molten salt and the
first one we did I dropped it in and
immediately it exploded and kind of like
flying out of the crucible that was also
really cool I dropped another egg into
there after the first one popped out it
didn’t pop it didn’t really crack much
but it did just sit in there and burn
quite a bit then I tried pouring out the
molten salt onto a frying pan and
cracking a couple of eggs on to the salt
after it had solidified to try and cook
the eggs right on the salt and overall
even this is best of the three methods
for using salt to cook an egg it’s
really not a good plan you don’t get
anywhere very useful if you’ve got any
ideas of things that you want to see us
do with molten salt let us know down in
the comments and if we use your idea we
will send you 25 bucks
hey what’s up guys is grant here with a
brand new Galaxy S 9 plus smartphone
that I’m giving away to one of you for
