Bring a pot of water to a full, rolling boil.
Carefully Add Eggs:
Using a slotted spoon, gently lower the eggs into the boiling water one by one.
Adjust Heat:
Lower the heat slightly to maintain a gentle boil without aggressive bubbling.
Cook to Desired Doneness:
Soft-boiled: 6–7 minutes
Medium-boiled: 8–9 minutes
Hard-boiled: 10–12 minutes
Ice Bath:
Once done, immediately transfer eggs to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process and make peeling easier.
Peel and Enjoy:
Tap each egg gently on a hard surface, roll to loosen the shell, and peel under running water for best results.
