Also, do you put the egg in cold water and bring to the boil, or put it in boiling water? What if it cracks!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much depends on the size of the egg. I give large eggs 4.5 mins and they generally come out fine. 39 minutes ago, Billy Apple said: Also, do you put the egg in cold water and bring to the boil, or put it in boiling water? What if it cracks!? Straight into simmering water. Make sure the eggs are room temp first or they'll crack for sure. Cold water brought to the boil will give you a hard boiled egg. They are horrid in every way. Edited February 7, 2019 by Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, do you put the egg in cold water and bring to the boil, or put it in boiling water? What if it cracks!? Runny Eggs The Del Var Way * Fill a medium saucepan nearly to the top with cold water * Place eggs in the cold water and see what happens. * If the eggs float freely in the water they're a bit old and therefore potentially not good for runny egg, i.e food poisoning, so discard or leave for hard boiled. If they lay on the bottom of the pan or just stand upright they're OK. * Pour off the water until the eggs are mostly covered but with a hint of shell showing above the water * Dry the outside of the saucepan. Place the pan of cold water and eggs on the cooker top and turn heat to full * Once the water comes to the boil cook for three and a half minutes. All cookers are different therefore you may need to experiment with timings until you achieve a satisfactorily runny egg. * If an egg cracks simply sprinkle a few drops of vinegar into the water. This will help any escaping egg white to bind more quickly and seal the crack * Remove eggs from water, place in egg cup and top with a colourful knitted egg cosy * Serve to the table with buttered soldiers * Fashion tip: Wear a dainty pinafore bearing the picture of an adorable Victorian street urchin with a tear in one eye and the legend 'Won't Somebody Love Me?' 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundfreedom Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 If the OP can't close the thread can we at least change the title to "Anderton's off topic egg thread". To be fair I've never had a bad egg from Anderton's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
