How to Boil an Egg Perfectly: Simple Kitchen Skills from The Ultimate How-To Guide

Boiling an egg might sound basic, but when done right, it transforms into a perfect protein-packed bite! Whether you love soft, jammy yolks or firm, hard-boiled eggs, this classic cooking method is a must-have in your kitchen toolkit.

Eggs are not only affordable — they’re rich in high-quality protein, healthy fats, and essential nutrients like choline, making them a true everyday superfood.

✨ Ingredients:

  • Organic or pasture-raised eggs
  • Filtered water

☕ Steps:

  1. Place eggs in a pot in a single layer.
  2. Add enough filtered water to cover them by about 1 inch.
  3. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat.
  4. Once boiling, turn off the heat and cover the pot.
  5. Let the eggs sit:

4–5 minutes for soft-boiled

9–12 minutes for hard-boiled

6. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes to stop cooking and make peeling easier.

πŸ”§ Pro Tip:

Serve boiled eggs with a sprinkle of sea salt, slices of avocado, or a handful of steamed greens for a quick, nourishing meal.
