‘Geothermal’ eggs in Iceland

While Iceland is often associated with adventure, the idea of boiling an egg in a geothermal pool might seem unusual. However, the travel vlogger, Gloria, decided to give it a shot.

In an Instagram video, the vlogger documented her visit to Laugarvatn, a town known for its geothermal activity. She showcased how parts of the lake are filled with bubbling hot pools—so intense they power local saunas and even bake bread in volcano-like mounds.

The vlogger simply grabbed some eggs, strolled along the shore, and discovered the perfect bubbling puddle. She placed the eggs in, covered them with sand, and waited for eight minutes. Voila! She made herself and her friend a nice meal comprising of bread and eggs.

What are geothermal pools?

Geothermal pools, or hot springs, are natural bodies of water heated by the Earth’s internal heat. These are typically found in regions with volcanic activity or where groundwater meets hot rocks deep within the Earth’s crust.

As evident from the vlogger’s video, the heat from the bubbling water of the little pools is so high, that it can permeate hard shells of eggs, and cook them from within.
