Ingredients

• 4 pieces Large eggs
• 0 as needed Water
• 0 as needed Ice

Directions

Step 1

Fill a medium saucepan with water, ensuring there is enough to completely cover the eggs, and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat.

Step 2

Once the water is boiling, carefully lower the eggs into the water using a slotted spoon. Make sure to not overcrowd the pan.

Step 3

Reduce the heat slightly to maintain a gentle boil and set a timer for exactly 6 and a half minutes for soft-boiled eggs.

Step 4

While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath. Fill a large bowl with ice cubes and cold water.

Step 5

When the cooking time is complete, immediately transfer the eggs to the ice bath using the slotted spoon to stop further cooking and make peeling easier.

Step 6

Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for at least 1-2 minutes, until they are cool enough to handle.

Step 7

Gently tap the eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell, and then peel them carefully under running water to help remove the shell.

Step 8

Serve the soft-boiled eggs immediately while warm, or refrigerate for later use.
