Are you always struggling to cook eggs perfectly? It turns out you may not have mastered some key techniques for boiling eggs! So how can we cook eggs to perfection?
Let's first take a look at an experimental process:
1. Boiling for 2 minutes - Not successful
The egg yolk is still orange-red, slightly sticky, and undercooked.
2. Boiling for 4 minutes - Not successful
The egg yolk is bright yellow, soft, and the center is still semi-solid, barely cooked.
3. Boiling for 5 minutes - Not successful
The egg yolk is still bright yellow, and the center is gelatinous, moderately cooked.
4. Boiling for 6 minutes - Successful but not perfect
The center of the egg yolk is solidified, and the outer part is starting to dry, fully cooked.
5. Boiling for >7 minutes - Not successful
The egg yolk becomes hard, the edges turn gray, and the longer the time, the more pronounced, overcooked.
The most perfect method: simmering
Completely immerse the eggs in cold water and heat slowly over low heat. When the water boils, turn off the heat and cover the pot for 10 minutes. This method will fully cook the egg yolk while keeping it soft and moist, resulting in the best texture!
