I put my egg into cold water and bring to the boil, then cook for about four minutes. But I also stir the water as it boils. This seems to help keep the yolk in the centre.

Answer 10

For Pete's sake don't take any notice of "Blah",you will have hard boiled eggs if you do . Put the egg in a saucepan with water just covering the egg, raise the heat until the water boils then simmer for three minutes, for a soft boiled egg.

By the way if you put an egg into a pan of boiling water it will almost certainly crack . So raise the temperature of the water and the egg together as I said.

Answer 11

Judging by the time most people here want to boil an egg for I can only assume that they must be boiling duck, goose - and in one instance, ostrich eggs!

To boil an ordinary hen's egg, you need but to put the egg in a pan of cold water with a little salt added to prevent cracking (sometimes!), bring it to the boil and let it boil gently for three minutes for a soft egg (one with a runny yolk) or five minutes for a hard-yolk. Anything beyond this results in 'bullets' which are not suitable for eating with toast for breakfast!
