can you poach just one egg in it?

Of course. There are 2 egg cups, just use one and leave the other one empty.

Yes. It has two sides, but it can hold a single egg and poach it just as effectively as two, though you might need to adjust the time slightly. Maybe a few seconds shorter to poach a single egg.

No, this product is just for things like baking, and mixing into custards and things like that. It wouldn't work to have just to eat as an egg.

No. You can slice it sideways or lengthways, you can cut it into wedges, & it has a small piercer to put a minute hole in the egg. It also has a small tool that can be used to make "v" shapes for decorating purposes. It cannot chop eggs.

I havenn't tried two eggs at a time, but I would guess with my exerience with one egg I would have to say no to two extra large eggs especially with added fixins. I love the way it cooks one egg at a time and that is enough for me. The short time it takes to do one egg I would do them separetely.

I only do the poach eggs but I just fill the middle part until it is full and works fine for the way I like my eggs.

I don't think you would be able to properly cook 2 eggs at one time unless you were scrambling them. One egg takes up the whole pan.

No. This is a bit different than the poached egg maker.But it's a breeze to make a great omelet. I just love my omelet maker. I can't remember when I've had such a delicious omelet.Instructions: Break 3 eggs into a bowl, season to taste, add 2 TB of water and whip well.Divide evenly between the two halves and cook 1 1/2 min. on high. Add you filling, if any.(I use veggie bacon and shredded cheese.) Cook 1 min., close the lid and cook 30 seconds more.In about 3 minutes I have a delicious omelet with no fuss. And cleanup couldn't be easier.

I add maybe inch of water heat until just boiling. Then place egg cups into ring add one egg to each cup cover and poach eggs for 3 to 4 minutes. I prefer 4 minutes. Remove eggs from cup and enjoy.

I don't know I got one for my son & one for myself, I have used mine several times & I think you need to use the poacher till you get the hang of just how high your heat needs to be & how long you need to cook till you get the eggs cooked the way you want.

Lisa, I do not care for poached eggs, but just for a "lesson learned", gonna try poaching one egg using the 12 teaspoons as you suggested. If I goof, well I'll just finish it off in a skillet & make an egg sandwich. What is that saying? "Experience is what we get when we were expecting something else. Thank goodness for simple things in life. Stella

Yes. Take a look at one of the product pictures http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81peHX8NymL._SL1500_.jpg. You'll just need to experiment with how much egg and 'filling'.

I like my eggs cooked hard, and I don't think this could be accomplished with adding extras. The machine is meant to soft poach eggs...they come out soft and with a goopey middle...not sure an omelet type could be cooked right.

Really you're not poaching the egg; you're soft-boiling it. It makes perfect soft-boiled eggs. The whites are congealed and the yolk is runny. But it's not poached. There's a difference.

Never thought about it much, but I do enjoy melted cheese over a poached egg, and putting cheese pieces in one of the poacher's egg cups for about 3 minutes does a good job of melting enough for one egg.

Not at all! This is my biggest complaint about this awesome cooker. I bring my egg in a separate container if I bring to work.

I have no idea, i would just pass. Every morning I use it for JUST one egg to validate my purchase.

Yes. I have only poached eggs in the cooker, but they came out great! The cooker shuts off when eggs are ready.
