how to boil an egg perfectly?
- Boil water: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water, about an inch above the eggs.
- Boil the eggs: Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Cooking time: Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain a gentle simmer and cook the eggs for:
Medium-boiled: 7-9 minutes,
Hard-boiled: 10-12 minutes
- Cool the eggs: Once cooked, immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Peel and serve: After a few minutes in the ice water, gently crack and peel the eggs under running water, then serve or store them as desired.
- These five steps should give you perfectly boiled eggs with your desired consistency. Adjust the cooking time based on how you prefer the yolk.
