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.
Use a slotted spoon to lower the eggs gently into the simmering water. Cook the eggs for about 6 minutes; 5 minutes if you like a very runny yolk and 7 minutes if you prefer a firmer set one.Use the slotted spoon to remove the eggs from the water and place them into an ice-water bath for 30 to 60 seconds.Alternatively, run them under cold water.espite its name, minimal boiling occurs when you make a soft-boiled egg. Producing velvety whites with a meltingly runny yolk requires immersing the eggs in gently simmering water for the optimal amount of time. Cook them too long, and the middles go hard; too little, and you've got raw eggs.
