Ingredients needed 5 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Never place cold eggs directly into boiling water—sudden temperature change can easily crack the shell. Always bring them to room temperature first.
  • Cooling the eggs thoroughly in cold water prevents residual heat from overcooking the inside, especially the yolk.
  • The brine slowly penetrates the shell, evenly seasoning the entire egg and making the shell much easier to peel.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make large batches of convenience store-style emotional eggs at home affordably.
  • Those looking to learn how to prepare perfectly soft-boiled eggs with a tender, moist texture and just-right consistency.
