 Soft-Boiled Egg


Soft-boiled eggs are a delicious and simple breakfast option. Here's how to make them:


Ingredients:

  • Eggs (as many as desired)
  • Water
  • Salt (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Eggs:

    • Remove the eggs from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature. This helps prevent cracking when they're added to boiling water.
  2. Boil Water:

    • Fill a saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs by about an inch.
    • Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
  3. Add Salt (Optional):

    • Optionally, you can add a pinch of salt to the boiling water. This can help prevent the eggs from cracking and make them easier to peel.
  4. Boil the Eggs:

    • Once the water is boiling, carefully add the eggs to the saucepan using a slotted spoon or spoon.
    • Reduce the heat slightly to maintain a gentle boil.
  5. Cook the Eggs:

    • Cook the eggs for about 6-7 minutes for a soft-boiled egg with a runny yolk. Adjust the cooking time slightly based on the size of the eggs and your desired level of doneness.
  6. Prepare an Ice Bath (Optional):

    • While the eggs are cooking, prepare a bowl of ice water. This will be used to cool the eggs quickly and stop the cooking process.
  7. Transfer to Ice Water (Optional):

    • Once the eggs have finished cooking, immediately transfer them to the bowl of ice water using a slotted spoon or spoon.
    • Let the eggs sit in the ice water bath for about 1-2 minutes to cool.
  8. Peel and Serve:

    • Carefully tap the eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell.
    • Peel the shell away, starting from the wider end of the egg where the air pocket is located.
    • Rinse the peeled eggs under cold water to remove any remaining shell fragments.
    • Serve the soft-boiled eggs immediately with toast or your favorite accompaniments.

Tips:

  • Timing: The cooking time for soft-boiled eggs can vary depending on factors such as the size of the eggs and the altitude. It may take a few attempts to find the perfect cooking time for your preferences.
  • Egg Freshness: Fresh eggs are less likely to spread out when boiled. If you have older eggs, they may be easier to peel.
  • Serve Immediately: Soft-boiled eggs are best served immediately after cooking while the yolk is still warm and runny.

With these instructions, you can make delicious soft-boiled eggs for a simple and satisfying breakfast or snack!
