Perfect timing and perfectly cooked - I was literally searching for this yesterday, and couldn't find a clear and concise video that showed how to cook eggs to this level on doneness. Thank you!
Yes. The trick is getting the whites solid not slimy while still having the yolks soft. I have repurposed my old implement for taking spaghetti out of boiling water (spork/ladle whatever it's called) for gently handling eggs.
Were the eggs in the fridge before you put them in the hot/boiling water please? Or room temperature? For me boiling for 6 min makes the yolk too hard. I LIKE the way yours came out! Perfect!
It’s not always this perfect.. I was pleasantly surprised. I find what helps is to hit the egg on something hard on the top of the egg, and the bottom, and start peeling from there. Never hit the egg on the side.
Add baking soda when cooking then throw some ice cubes on the eggs after the cold water. Using older eggs helps, too. When cracking, roll them around on the counter vs trying to peel from one spot and aim for the membrane vs the shell itself.
6 minutes? By the time you finish putting the eggs there, the first one is already at least almost at a minute long, no? I use the steam method from the food wishes guy, and it takes 7 to 7:30

Thank you!
Yay glad you enjoyed it!
I will be having some this morning using your method. Thanks!
SIDE NOTE: Make sure they are room temperature eggs. Or try 8 min with refrigerated ones.
Did it work?!
Thanks, the timing is key.
Oh wow they are perfectly done! Thanks for the video

Yes exactly .. the issue I always have with other methods is the whites are pure slimey liquid
Thanks
Man who pounce on bedspring this Spring, have offspring next Spring. Someone at my work placed that on my umbrella next to the dry clean only label.
The yolk is SO BEAUTIFUL COLOR ! Deep yellow. What brand eggs are those please?😋😋
They are from a small local farm where I live

The same question occurred to me, from the fridge into boiling water the sudden change in temp could cause them to crack
Eggs shouldn’t be kept in the fridge !p
Room temp!
Room temp!
@@richardjohnston4682 how come?
they do look amazing Petra but how come you peeled them so perfectly? I often find the shell sticks to the white its very annoying!🤔

@@ancestralhealing that's interesting 'cos hitting the eggs on the side is exactly what I've been doing also some eggs easy, some eggs sticky 😀
How do you peel them without ripping the eggs apart? I'm so bad at that part of it 😅 they look wonderful though
I wanna know how long she waited before peeling cause every time I do I always get half the egg in with the shell🙄

@@JenFine223 do you usually wait a while or do you shell within a few minutes after removing from the heat?
@@JG-pu9fd thanks for the tips, I'll have to give this a shot!
@@zacharygregg2841 I wait but always get the shell stuck inside just about everyrime
How long did you wait to peel?
Right away. Running them under cold water right away makes it possible to peel without getting your fingers burned.
After boiling the eggs for 4 minutes, I put them in a bowl of ice water. Then peeling them is easy.
We put ours in a bowl of ice water instead of running water.
That’s also a great way to do it
