3.Boil to Desired Doneness:Adjust time for desired yolk firmness.

Cook the eggs according to your preference:

  • Soft-boiled: 6–7 minutes

  • Medium-boiled: 8–9 minutes

  • Hard-boiled: 10–12 minutes

4.Transfer to an Ice Bath:Stops cooking and shrinks the egg inside.

Immediately transfer the cooked eggs into a bowl filled with cold water and ice cubes for 5–10 minutes.

5.Peel and Serve:Shells slide off effortlessly.

Gently tap the egg on the counter to crack the shell, then peel starting from the pierced broad end. The shell should slip off in large pieces.
