Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Eggs
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Optional spices or herbs (like paprika, chives, or dill)

Instructions

  1. Assemble the Ingredients: Gather your eggs, salt, pepper, and any optional spices or herbs you’d like to use for seasoning.
  2. Place the eggs gently in a pot and cover them with cold water, ensuring there’s about an inch of water above the eggs for even cooking.
  3. Bring the water to a full rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  4. Cover the pot with a lid, remove it from the heat, and let it sit for 9-12 minutes depending on how you like your yolk.
  5. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath to halt the cooking process and cool completely.
  6. Peel the eggs under running water for easy removal of the shells and enjoy with seasoning of your choice.

Notes

Use eggs that are a few days old for easier peeling. Adjust cooking times for softer or firmer yolks.
