Description
With perfectly cooked whites and a runny yolk, soft-boiled eggs can make the simplest of meals that much more special.
From Jessica Merchant of How Sweet It Is.
Ingredients
- 3 Large Eggs
Preparation
Fill a large bowl with ice and water.
Heat about 3 inches of water in a small saucepan over medium heat until boiling. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat until it’s barely at a simmer, add the eggs gently and cook for 6 minutes. Set a timer!
Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place them in the ice bath. Let the eggs cool slightly before peeling. Instead of peeling, you can slice the top off and just use the egg yolk for dipping toast sticks—or you can peel the whole egg and serve it similarly to a poached egg.
