When you eat two eggs a day, here’s what happens to your body
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Bring the Water to a Boil 🌋
- Pour the water into a small saucepan and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat.
Step 2: Gently Lower the Eggs 🥚
- Once boiling, reduce the heat slightly to a medium-high simmer so the eggs don’t bounce around and crack against each other.
- Using a slotted spoon, gently lower your two fresh eggs into the water one by one.
Step 3: Set Your Timer for 7 Minutes! ⏱️
- For that gorgeous, jammy, velvety yolk center shown in let them simmer uncovered for exactly 7 minutes.
Tip: If you prefer a completely firm, hard-boiled yolk, leave them in for 9 to 10 minutes.
Step 4: The Ice Shock Treatment 🧊❄️
- While the eggs are boiling, prepare a small bowl filled with cold water and your ice cubes.
- The second your 7-minute timer dings, immediately transfer the eggs from the hot saucepan into the ice bath. Let them chill for 3 minutes. This stops the cooking process instantly and shrinks the egg slightly inside the shell, making them incredibly easy to peel!
Step 5: Peel and Split ✨ (As Pictured in )
- Gently tap the eggs against your counter to crack the shell all over, then peel under running water.
- Slice the egg down the center. When you pull the two halves apart with your hands, you will get the exact creamy, golden internal texture displayed beautifully in ! Season with a pinch of sea salt and cracked black pepper.
