How To Make Long Eggs

If you've ever had a slice of Gala Pie, you might have wondered how they get the boiled egg into the pork filling, and how come it's the same size all the way through. Well, it's a Long Egg (also known as Infinite Egg). Commercial long eggs are made using a clever machine. The basic process is to poach egg yolks in a tube, then put that into a bigger tube and surround it with egg white and poach it again. In this video I show you some of my experiments to reproduce this at home. It involves different sizes of sausage casing, plastic bags, sticky tape, lots of sweat and almost some tears. Along the way I discovered quite a few things that you shouldn't do when trying to make a long egg, as well as some that you should.
