Enjoy these soft-boiled eggs with a creamy yolk and a hint of flavor, perfect for breakfast or a snack.
Fill a saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs and bring it to a gentle boil.
Using filtered water can enhance the taste of the eggs.
Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water using a spoon.
Lower the eggs gently to prevent cracking.
Boil the eggs for 6 minutes for a soft yolk or 8 minutes for a firmer yolk.
Adjust the cooking time slightly for your preferred yolk consistency.
Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process.
Adding ice to the water can cool the eggs faster.
Gently peel the eggs and sprinkle with a pinch of salt before serving.
Roll the egg gently on a flat surface to crack the shell evenly.
