yolk of eggs, including boiled eggs), must be pierced
in several places before cooking or reheating. If not,
steam will build up and may cause food to explode.
Note: Eggs in their shells and whole hard boiled
eggs should not be heated in the microwave
ovens since they may explode even after
microwaving has ended.
