Ingredients
- 4 Large eggs
- 1 liter Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 10 pieces Ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Fill a medium saucepan with 1 liter of water and add 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat.
Step 2
Once the water is boiling, carefully and gently lower the 4 large eggs into the water using a slotted spoon to prevent them from cracking.
Step 3
Set a timer for 6 minutes for perfect soft-boiled eggs with runny yolks. Adjust the timing slightly if you want firmer or runnier yolks.
Step 4
While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a medium bowl with cold water and adding about 10 ice cubes.
Step 5
After 6 minutes, promptly remove the eggs from the boiling water using the slotted spoon and transfer them to the ice bath. Let the eggs cool for at least 5 minutes to stop the cooking process.
Step 6
Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, gently tap them on a hard surface to crack the shells and peel them carefully.
Step 7
Serve the soft boiled eggs immediately while warm, seasoned with salt and pepper if desired, or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for later use.
