Ingredients
Alright, you really just need water and eggs. You can make as many eggs as you want, but you don’t want to crowd the pot because the water temperature will drop too much and your eggs will not cook the way you want them to. You can add salt or vinegar to the water if you want. Some people feel that adding salt or vinegar to the water keeps the eggs from cracking.
4-6 Large Eggs: I always use large grade A eggs in my recipes. I like to let my eggs sit out for about an hour before boiling them to get them to room temperature. If they are too cold when you drop them in boiling water, they might crack.Water for Boiling: Water from your tap will work great, and you can add vinegar or salt if you want. You want to fill the pot so that there is one inch of water covering the eggs.
How to Make Soft Boiled Eggs
Perfect soft boiled eggs are just as easy as hard boiled! Make sure you have a slotted spoon handy to lower the eggs. You don’t want to drop them in the pot because they might crack when they hit the bottom. You will also want to have a bowl of ice water handy to cool the eggs off quickly so they don’t keep cooking once you take them out of the water.
6 Minutes: If you like your eggs over easy, that is what these centers are like. They ooze out when you cut into them, and the egg white is nice and soft. This is great for ramen!7 Minutes: This is just a little more firm, and the egg white has a little more stiffness. It is really yummy on a salad or with roasted asparagus!8 Minutes: Now you are getting to the edge of a hard boiled egg. If you cook it for a few more minutes, the yolk would be firm. So this is as long as you would want to cook a soft boiled egg.
In the Refrigerator: Store your unpeeled soft boiled egg in the fridge for up to two days. You can store a peeled soft boiled egg in an airtight container in the fridge for two days, they are just harder to reheat the right way.Reheat: Put your unpeeled soft boiled eggs in simmering water for about a minute.
