Microwaving an egg can cause it to explode due to the build-up of steam inside the shell. This can be dangerous and create a mess in the microwave. It is not recommended to microwave a whole egg without first pricking the shell or removing it from the shell.

It is not advisable to try to hardboil an egg in a microwave. They can explode and the material that comes out of the egg can burn you or remain stuck on the walls in your kitchen. It is much better to boil a pot of water and place the eggs in the hot water for about ten minutes or until when cracked, nothing runny comes out of the egg.

Can I boil an egg in the microwave?

It is never safe to microwave an egg that is still in its shell, as the buildup of steam inside the egg can cause it to explode. Therefore, hard- or soft-boiling eggs using a microwave is a very bad idea. The safest way to prepare eggs in a microwave using water would be to poach them. Be sure to pierce the yolk membrane to prevent a similar steam-pressure explosion from occurring. And remember that the microwaves will also be heating the egg itself, not just the water it's floating in, which means that the yolk won't be as soft as with eggs poached over a stove.
