Hi Deb.....here is a video and I use this method and it is foolproof [LINK] - GayR - 4:29pm on 06/22/19

Does that method work with very fresh eggs? - judy-mass - 5:19pm on 06/22/19

I have chickens and this method (steaming over boiling water) works best for me. . . - mistral - 11:47pm on 06/23/19

No ice bath? I thought that was key� - MariaDNoCA - 12:50am on 06/24/19

Oh, Wow, I forgot about the ice bath--that is what I do also! (bt) [NT] - mistral - 5:53pm on 06/24/19

Deb if you steam them instead of boiling, the shell comes off effortlessly [NT] - CathyZKauai - 4:51pm on 06/22/19

Thank you SO MUCH Everyone! Steaming I shall do! [NT] - deb-in-MI - 8:01pm on 06/22/19
just be sure to have your eggs at room temp before steaming to prevent bursting [NT] - Janet in NC - 2:38pm on 06/23/19

My steaming instructions emphasize cold straight from fridge - Melissa Dallas - 10:15pm on 06/23/19

And steam ONLY 1 layer off eggs--they all need to be over boiling, steaming water. (Nt) [NT] - mistral - 11:49pm on 06/23/19

My *Kaffeehaus* cookbook has Dobos torte, but it is only showing 5 very thin layers. Each layer - MarilynFL - 1:08pm on 06/23/19

Then there is Esterh�zy torte, which uses nut multi-layers (dacquoise) rather than flour cake. [LINK] - MarilynFL - 1:11pm on 06/23/19

Sounds like it could be a version of Baumkuchen, Schichttorte or Prinzregenten Torte. None of ... [LINK] - RuthAB - 1:38pm on 06/23/19
Sounds to me like a Dobos Torte which is Hungarian - CathyZKauai - 3:56pm on 06/23/19

Am I reading the recipe correctly to beat the eggs with hot water? - oli - 3:13pm on 06/28/19

Yes. It yields more volume for a lighter batter. Eggs at room temp too, of course. [NT] - Richard in Cincy - 1:50am on 07/01/19

Interesting, will have to try that in the future. [NT] - oli - 3:33am on 07/02/19

Either is fine. It will be luxious. Have done those a number of times. [NT] - Charley - 11:04am on 06/25/19
You're shooting for an internal temp, at the center of the roasts of 190 to 205. - Michael in Phoenix - 3:35pm on 06/25/19

I do 8 hours at 250. Always seems perfect to me. Good idea. Must find pig. [NT] - Marg CDN2 - 6:09pm on 06/25/19

Well, I did them in parfait glasses . The meringues are very marshmallowy - CynUpstateNY - 8:47pm on 06/29/19

Great video, but he never used a level to confirm squareness--losing true OCD GBH credibility. [LINK] - MarilynFL - 6:30pm on 07/01/19

the code is so old it is very difficult to debug. [NT] - pmassell_93 - 7:08pm on 08/15/19

Can we keep this just as a *search database* and restart a new DB with code from this century? [NT] - MarilynFL - 7:44pm on 08/15/19

yes I'm thinking as a transition to keep the current swap read-only and modern version for new stuff [NT] - pmassell_93 - 8:25pm on 08/15/19

Was driving in my car, thinking just the same thing. Thank you. [NT] - Marg CDN2 - 12:19am on 08/16/19
