Boiling Eggs Made Easy: Flawless Results Every Time (Page 2 ) | August 3, 2024

Now, let’s dive into the step-by-step process for achieving flawless boiled eggs:

1. Room Temperature Eggs: Start with eggs at room temperature. This simple trick helps prevent the shells from cracking when they encounter hot water.
2. Boiling Water: Fill a pot with enough water to fully cover the eggs. Bring the water to a full boil over high heat.
3. Adding the Eggs: Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low (just enough to maintain a simmer) and gently lower the eggs into the water using a spoon or ladle. This keeps them still and prevents any unwanted cracks.
4. Cooking Time: The cooking time varies depending on your desired consistency:
   • Soft-boiled eggs: Cook for about 4-6 minutes.
   • Medium-boiled eggs: Cook for about 6-9 minutes.
   • Hard-boiled eggs: Cook for about 10-12 minutes.

   Remember to adjust the cooking time slightly based on the egg size and your altitude.

5. Cooling the Eggs: Once the eggs are cooked to perfection, remove them from the hot water using a slotted spoon and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water. This quick cooling process stops the cooking and makes peeling a breeze.
6. Peeling: After the eggs have cooled for around 5 minutes in the ice water, gently crack the shells and peel them under a small stream of running water. The water helps separate the shell from the egg, making it easy to peel.
