Despite the soft texture of the egg, the hack kept both the white and yolk perfectly intact with no crumbliness.
The video was a hit with other users of the social media platform, 1.9 million of which have viewed it.
One person was so impressed that they likened the extracted egg yolk to a “seed from an avocado”. Many other influencers on the app re-shared the tip, also admitted that they had only just stumbled across it after some 30 years.
