Hahah don’t watch it it’s not for you, obviously your eggs game is superior

So no response to Kenji’s video huh? What do you have to say to Kenji? Is he wrong? Is he cooking his eggs for too long? Are you a better chef? Sounds to me like you’re just a reactionary internet expert but in reality you can’t even boil an egg.

lol

Wow sounds like you also need a good prick up the bottom to release all that air you absolute insufferable gasbag.

My advice came from Kenji López-Alt, specifically from this video: https://youtu.be/hb0Elaa6gxY Now I don’t know where you’re from and what kind of eggs you’re used to, but in Europe we have normal eggs straight from the chicken’s ass and that’s how long they take to boil.

I just run the same pot under running cold water and then I leave the eggs in that cold water for a couple of minutes. I guess if you want you can prepare an ice bath, that would be better but I can’t be bothered. I need to have breakfast ready in a few minutes so I don’t care about perfection. Sure, some might break when you lower them into boiling water, and some might not peel as easy. But in general this method gives me easy peeling eggs for the most part.

The fresh eggs thing is a myth, this happens to all eggs. Here’s what you do: Boil the water first and then place your eggs in it. You can lower the heat afterwards to a lower simmer.

6 minutes for really runny eggs. 7 minutes for runny yolk. 8 minutes and the yolk is almost firm. Egg size matters of course.

After, put the eggs in cold water so they stop cooking. This also helps the membrane to separate.

Another method is to prick the bottom of the egg where the air pouch is with a small needle before dropping them in the boiling water along with some vinegar. Same steps after, cold water etc. This is what they do in restaurants but honestly I never bother, the first method delivers easily peelable eggs 80% of the time and that’s good enough for me.

It’s true, but as long as you’re aware of it I guess it’s fine since it’s definitely the minority echo chamber.

What worries me is that even here among the “civilized” it’s very rare to see people with different views actually have a proper conversation about it. Most are just shallow and reactionary, they only downvote and resort to name calling.
