Ideas to recycle the water from boiling eggs from the ThriftyFun community.

Use To Clear a Drain

You could use the hot water in your drain. When I was a bartender years ago, we used to dump a bit of bleach in the drains followed by scalding water to keep the drain and pipes clear of build up. We did it then because slow melting ice would cause the drains to clog. If you have a dishwasher, you are using your sink a lot less. This is good to keep those drains clear.
