Having a soft or hard-boiled egg can be crucial to a meal, and if you need to know exactly how to do it, this is the guide for you.

Runny Center

If you’re looking for an egg that has a super runny center but a set white, you are looking at the classic 5-minute egg.

All you have to do is first, set up an ice bath. This is just a combination of water and ice so when the eggs come out of the pot they can go directly in there. This is crucial because it stops the cooking process so you can still have your runny yolk.

Bring a pot of water to boil, use a spider or a slotted spoon to slowly put your eggs in there, and cook them for 5-5.5 minutes. As soon as your timer goes off, put them directly into the ice bath, peel, and you have your perfect runny egg!

Set Yolk

If you want a harder yolk because that’s your preference or you want to make an egg salad, all you have to do is boil water, put the eggs in again with a slotted spoon or spider, and cook them for 8 minutes.

When the 8 minutes are done, again, put them into an ice bath to stop the cooking and to cool them off so you can peel them more easily.

Learning how to make eggs is one of the most fundamental parts of cooking. That’s because eggs are a really versatile ingredient, and go way beyond just something you have for breakfast.

Take soft boiled eggs, for example. These are eggs that are fully cooked on the outside, like a hard boiled egg, but on the inside, the yolk is still lovely and runny like you would see on a fried egg. Making it doesn’t take much work, and it is such a great skill to have.

Instructions

  1. Start off by boiling a pot of water. It doesn’t have to be a roaring boil, just a small one.
  2. Use a slotted spoon to place the eggs into the water. If you don’t use the spoon your eggs might crack against the pot.
  3. Then, put the lid of the pot on and set your timer for exactly 5 minutes. If you cook the egg for too long, your yolk will not be runny, which defeats the whole purpose.
  4. While the eggs are cooking, put some ice cubes in a bowl with water.
  5. When the timer goes off, use the spoon to scoop out the eggs and place them immediately into the water.
  6. Peel them and they’re ready to be eaten for breakfast, put into a bowl of ramen, or anything you can dream of!
