To firm up at 100Â° it takes an additional 2 minutes (you can test this by dropping some egg yolk into boiling water in a freezer bag and observe, I just did that to verify my old numbers). So in this case you'll have 9 minutes for a hard boiled egg and around 5 for soft boiled. By then the time/temp equation has normalized and you'll see longer and longer spans between consistency changes. Custardy is about 5 minutes for a medium (Grade AA) egg. Secondly, my approach.
Always start with eggs that are at room temperature to best predict the cooking time and minimise cracking. For a soft-boiled egg, lower the egg into gently boiling water with a slotted spoon. Allow three and a half minutes for a medium-sized egg and four minutes for a large egg.The yolk will be runny and the white just set. Cook for a further minute if you like your soft boiled eggs a little firmer. For a hard-boiled egg, start the egg in cold water and bring up to the boil.Once the water is gently boiling, set the timer for between 7-10 minutes depending on how well cooked you like your eggs.The longer you boil the egg, the firmer it will be.he yolk will be runny and the white just set. Cook for a further minute if you like your soft boiled eggs a little firmer. For a hard-boiled egg, start the egg in cold water and bring up to the boil.
