[Sca-cooks] Square Eggs

[Pixel, Goddess and Queen]

The thing about the gizmo is that it has a screw-top to force the little 
square plastic plate onto the egg to keep it that shape while it cools. If 
you could force the egg into a little square container and keep it that 
way until it was cool, I suppose there wouldn't be any reason why it 
wouldn't work.

Our medieval ancestors would probably have loved it.
