Ingredients
Eggs
- 2 large eggs
Other
- Water (enough to boil eggs)
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Boil Water: Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil on the stovetop, ensuring there’s enough water to fully submerge the eggs.
- Cook Eggs: Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water and let them cook for exactly 6 minutes to achieve soft-boiled eggs with jammy yolks.
- Cool Eggs: Immediately transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice water for 1 minute to stop further cooking and make peeling easier.
- Serve: Crack the eggs open and season with salt and pepper. Serve with toast soldiers or avocado as desired for a delicious breakfast.
Notes
- For easy dipping, serve the eggs with toast cut into thin ‘soldiers’.
- Avocado pairs well for added creaminess and healthy fats.
- Use fresh eggs for best results with soft boiled texture.
