When you boil an egg, a physical change occurs that causes it to harden. The time it takes to hard boil an egg depends on the size of the egg. Give the egg time to reach room temperature, about 12 to 15 minutes. Place the eggs in a pan of water and give the water time to boil. It should take eight to 10 minutes for the water to begin to boil, less time if you cover the pan with a lid. You can also add salt to the water to encourage the water to boil faster.
Lower your eggs straight from the fridge into already-boiling water, or place them in a steamer insert in a covered pot steaming at full blast on the stovetop. If boiling, lower the heat to the barest simmer. Cook the eggs for 11 minutes for hard or 6 minutes for soft.Serve.f you're boiling, you can plunge your eggs into boiling water, let them boil for 30 seconds or so just to set the exterior of the whites, then drop the temperature and finish them off at around 180 to 190Â°F (a very low simmer). You end up with eggs that are easy to peel, with tender whites throughout.
