Ingredients:

• Eggs

• Water

Instructions:

1. Fill a small saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs.

2. Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the water to a rolling boil.

3. Once the water is boiling, use a spoon to carefully lower the eggs into the water.

4. Set a timer for 6 minutes for a slightly runny yolk, or 7 minutes for a more set yolk.

5. While the eggs are cooking, prepare a bowl of ice water.

6. Once the timer goes off, use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs from the boiling water and immediately place them into the ice water.

7. Let the eggs sit in the ice water for at least 1 minute to cool them down and stop the cooking process.

8. Remove the eggs from the ice water and gently tap the shells on a hard surface to crack them all over.

9. Peel off the shells starting at the wider end where the air pocket is located.

10. Serve the soft-boiled eggs immediately with toast or as desired.

Soft-boiled eggs are best served immediately while they are still warm and runny. Enjoy!
