But what is the purpose of this object

At first glance, this   little tool is surprising  . Compact, often metal, with a slightly retro look, it’s sometimes mistaken for a smoking accessory or a DIY tool. Yet, its function is   quite elegant   : to cleanly remove the top of a soft-boiled  egg without damaging the rest of the shell.

Simply place the egg in an egg cup, place the utensil on top, press lightly… and   click  , the lid comes off   cleanly and effortlessly  .   No more little pieces of shell on your plate!
