You dumped out the water ten minutes ago. The pot is cooled off, and empty. It only had whole eggs in it, still in the shells. Now tell me, do you wash that pot? Get out the sponge and the soap and scrub it like usual? Or do you give it a quick rinse and slam it in the drying rack? No judgement here, only curiosity.
I leave the pot on the counter for five days, forgetting its contents were harmless, and then wash the pot.
I will half heartedly wash it with sponge and a tiny bit of soap because I feel guilty if I don’t.
A quick rinse’ll do’er.
Eggs are filthy. They came out of a chicken’s pooper.
But are usually washed before you get them.
You’ll know filthy unwashed eggs when you see them.
Boiling water also kills bacteria. In fact they get killed long before the water starts boiling (pasteurization).
However, water contains salts and minerals so I always give it a quick scrub and rinse and dry off, but I’m certainly not worried about my pot being unsanitary because I boiled eggs.
Given how hard our water is, yes.
Boiled water leaves a residue on the pot, so I always end up halfheartedly washing it
I boil with salt and a bit of vinegar in the pot. When I’m done, there is a noticeable white coating on the pot, presumably calcium from the egg shells.
So yes, it gets washed.
This is the way

I do because I live in an area where the water is hard as fuck, and will leave a ring of minerals in my pot if I do not wash it. So regardless of any other factors, I do.
Quick rinse unless I forget what I used it for or one of the eggs cracked or something.
No washing, the boiling water sterilized anything nefarious on the eggs. I don’t wash my cast iron either, just rinse and kill it with fire on the stove.
Did you wash the poo off the eggs before you started? If so; then, yeah, rinse it out and hang it back up.
this is why I poo on the eggs after they’re boiled, not before. fewer dishes to clean
If you’re in the US or Canada, they’ve already been cleaned! :)
Moms is slacking off. Anytime I visit she gives me dozens, but they are always straight outta the chicken.
I’m a lazy fuck, but I’ll at least rinse jic.
Our water is hard so I scrub lightly with a sponge to get the pot shiny again but don’t use soap
Boiled water, yeah?
Quick rinse and wipe, done!
I will half heartedly wash it with sponge and a tiny bit of soap because I feel guilty if I don’t.
