peeled soft boiled eggs….
A while back I saw this picture that appeared to be a hard boiled egg with a fried egg yolk in the middle. Well, that image floated around in my head and I decided that I had to figure out how it’s done…
and, yes.. I know what a soft boiled egg is… but usually those are served in an egg cup with the shell intact, you know? So, with no shell intact, I began to ponder….
Has that ever happened to you? I get these “foodie” obsessions.
So, after MUCH google-ing…. I figured it out.
Some people call them four-minute eggs, some people call them six minute eggs. And, you have to move quick if you’re going to snap a pic of its golden goodness.
Because, there’s no turning back once you cut into the buttery yolk…
So divine. And simple.
To make these:
Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil with 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
Place desired number of eggs into boiling water.
BOIL EXACTLY FOUR MINUTES!!! (or six, but I went for four) *many readers have told me six works best for them.
Immediately place into a bowl with ice water.
Once cool enough to handle, CAREFULLY peel shell.
Place on top of hash browns, toast, salad…etc.
Slice into and enjoy!
