How do you boil eggs?


Rate This Answer

How to hard boil an egg: Place the raw egg in a saucepan. Run cold water into the saucepan until the water is 1 inch above the egg. Place the saucepan on a stove and cook over medium heat until the water begins to boil. Reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes for soft-boiled eggs or 10 to 15 minutes for hard-boiled eggs. Remove the egg with a spoon or ladle and let it cool slowly, or run cold water over it to cool it more quickly. Chill with ChaCha!
