Steps:

• Place egg in a small saucepan, and add enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil. Cook for 3 minutes.

EASY SOFT-BOILED EGG

SOFT-BOILED EGGS WITH TOAST

Steps:

• Boil a saucepan of water. Slowly lower the eggs into the pan on a slotted spoon (to not crack on the bottom). Cook for 4 minutes. Remove and place in cold water. Meanwhile toast the bread and spread with butter.
• Scoop the eggs into a small bowl. Break the bread into pieces and add to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir the eggs and toast together until the toast is coated with yolk.

SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS ON TOAST

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Whisk the eggs until the yolks and the whites are cohesive and light yellow.
• Add the butter to a nonstick pan and heat over medium-low heat. When the butter is melted, add the eggs and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Continue moving the eggs with a rubber spatula; after a few minutes, some curds will start forming. Keep stirring and scraping the pan until the eggs come together, are creamy and look almost like a custard. This process can take between 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan from heat. Season with salt.
• To serve, spoon the eggs onto the toast. Top with freshly ground black pepper.

SOFT BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Fill a medium sized saucepan with water and bring to a rolling boil.
• Make sure your eggs aren't fridge cold. By having the eggs at room temperature, it will be less of a shock for the egg reaching the hot water and therefore less likely to crack. You can also use an egg pricker to make a very small hole in each egg before boiling, which will also reduce the chances of it cracking in the heat. Slowly lower the eggs into the water using a spoon.
• Set your timer for 4-5 mins for runny/dippy eggs to serve with soldiers, or 6-7 mins for soft-boiled eggs for a salad. If serving in a salad, plunge the eggs into a bowl of cold water as soon as the timer goes off - this will stop them cooking and cool the shells quickly for peeling.
