HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT SOFT BOILED EGG:
(Recipe courtesy of Maggie Ruggiero)
Lower a room temperature egg into boiling water so that it’s completely submerged. Remove the egg with a slotted spoon after 3 minutes and rest until it’s cool enough to peel. (Do not drop the egg into cold water to help the peeling process because it’s important for the egg to continue to cook as it cools) Serve dipped with hot buttered toast “soldiers” or all by itself, with a small sprinkling of sea salt.

Yummy googy-egg.
oops, i’m guilty of dunking my eggs into cold water – i’ll make sure to avoid doing that in the future. lovely photography you have!
I love that you called the toast soldiers! That’s what my mom used to call the sliced buttered toast when she’d make us a hard boiled egg. I’m totally having this tonight for dinner
Eggses are best when soft boiled. You have to love that runny yolk. It is the room temperature egg that makes a difference I suppose…? Supper is sorted. Thanks!
That egg looks divine
