Making eggs may seem easy, but getting them just right can be tricky. One common error people often make is beginning with cold water. This way of cooking eggs can result in eggs that are not evenly cooked and are difficult to peel. Instead, let’s look into the “hot start” method, which chefs praise for always making great eggs.
Understanding the Hot Start Technique
To start eggs in hot water, also known as the “hot start” method, you put the eggs directly into water that is boiling or almost boiling. This method has many benefits compared to the usual way of starting, where eggs are put in cold water and then boiled.
Advantages of Starting a Task with Energy
Making it easier to peel eggs: When eggs are put into hot water, the egg whites become firm more quickly, making them separate from the shell’s membrane. This helps to peel eggs more easily, especially when they are fresh and usually harder to peel.
Cooking with more control: The hot start technique helps you have better control over how long your food cooks. Because the water is already hot, it takes less time for it to start boiling again, so the cooking process begins right away.
To prevent cracking, do not put eggs in cold water and then heat it quickly. Using warm water first reduces the risk because the eggs experience a slower temperature change after the initial shock.
