HIC's Vintage Style Kitchen Egg Timer helps take the guesswork out of cooking perfect hard boiled eggs every time. This hourglass sand timer brings full functionality to kitchen tools with a nostalgic touch from simpler times. No mechanical gadget to set or complex app to learn and no more guessing how long to boil eggs! Easy to use, simply turn the Egg Timer over to activate the 3-minute countdown. Once all grains of sand pass through the hourglass, eggs are perfectly hard boiled. Cook perfect hard boiled eggs for making deviled eggs, egg salad, pickled eggs, or enrich the flavor of potato salad, a lasagna recipe, breakfast casserole and more. It doubles nicely as an activity timer for games and fun family activities, too. Its hardwood frame protects the sand-filled hourglass. Wipe with a damp cloth as needed.
