Perfectly Boiled Eggs with a Creamy Yolk

1.Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan or pot.

2.Add enough water to the pot to cover the eggs by about an inch.

3.Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.

4.Once the water reaches a boil, cover the pot with a lid and remove it from heat.

5.Let the eggs sit in the hot water for the following times depending on your desired doneness: 4 minutes for soft-boiled, 6 minutes for medium-boiled, and 10-12 minutes for hard-boiled.

6.While the eggs are sitting, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with cold water and ice.

7.After the desired time has passed, carefully transfer the eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon.

8.Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for at least 5 minutes to stop the cooking process and cool them down.

9.Once cooled, gently tap the eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel under running water for easier removal.
