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.
Follow These Steps. 1  Fill a large pot with 1 inch of water. 2  Place steamer basket inside. 3  Cover pot and bring to a boil.  Add eggs to basket and 1  cover. Cook for 12 minutes. (Note: For soft-boiled eggs, stop cooking after 6Â½ minutes.)  Drain the pan and cool the eggs in an ice bath or under cold running water. Get more hard-boiled egg recipes.
