Notes
*How to Soft-Boil Eggs
- Bring a pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. You will need just enough water to cover the eggs (about an inch).
- Place the eggs in the boiling water.
- Let the eggs boil, covered, for six minutes. (I would recommend setting the timer for this since it is time-sensitive.)
- While the eggs are boiling, create an ice water bath for the boiled eggs (ice water in a bowl).
- After six minutes, use a slotted spoon to remove the eggs from the boiling water and place them in the ice water until they are cool enough to peel.
- CAREFULLY peel the soft-boiled eggs.
