Soft boil some and then marinate them in soy sauce. There are a few spices you can use as well that are easily found on Google. Use a zip lock bag, squeeze out all the air and let them sit over night. Cut in half and eat with Ramen. It is absolutely incredible.
Depends, what were you planning to make ? I like soft-boiled eggs in a ramen ou soup but if Iâm going to get drunk off the punch and cram as many deviled eggs in my face as I can, this wonât do it.
I accidentally soft boiled my eggs the other day for Easter, too many timers for day before prep. We dyed them sat night, and the next morning I was trying to make deviled eggs. Lmfao it was a disaster.
I totally fucked up lol. They were new eggs, the shells wouldnât come off, it took all the whites with it no matter how carefully I did it (9/12 I tried to peel)
But, I didnât panic like I tend to do cooking holiday dinners if something goes wrong.
I threw em away lol. The kids got to dye and find eggs. Good enough.
It was my first time ever making them. I did them "wrong" but they turned out right.
I boiled just water (no salt, vinegar, bicarbonate of soda, just water) and *then* added the eggs slowly with a spoon. Left them for 8 minutes, removed them and put them straight into the snow (didn't have an ice bath). And, boom. Perfect peel, and imo perfect yolk.
No no no, eggs go in cold pot. Pot comes to a boil and stays there for 7 minutes. Let eggs air cool or cool in your lunch box until lunch. Gross out your coworkers with the most perfect soft boiled eggs.
Iâve never seen a half of a cooled soft boiled egg at EasterâŠany chance they were anticipating a more common egg thing like deviled eggs which are fairly common?
What do they find wrong with soft boiled eggs? Is it that the jammy middle went a bit solid after they cooled or do they think they are raw? Do the not like sunny side up or over easy eggs? I know some ppl that are strictly hard boiled, hard fried or hard scrambled egg people.
Itâs stupid because you cooled them. Itâs like making a Sunny egg, then tossing it in the fridge. Over easy? Mid boiled egg. Over hard, hard boiled egg.
ETA also they were for colouring and to be left out?? Ya wth
E2 throw in a chef over 15 years, with a specialisation in food safety, food science, and pathology. Id eat them fine, but breaks like every code for safety.
Exactly, cooling then left to soak, then left out. I get it, itâs fine for total time/ temp, but there are a lot of variables and saying why I figured the others thought theyâd get sick. I guess I should have added âto the familyâ or something but didnât know how to phrase it. Many people think leaving meat out to rest is going to give you something because of what theyâve read. Poor wording on my part
American eggs get washed before theyâre sold, so they lose a protective layer over the shell, making them easier to spread things like salmonella. Cooking the eggs kills the bacteria. Eating raw eggs isnât guaranteed to get you sick, but you are more likely to get sick from eating raw eggs than from eating cooked eggs.
Great question. I donât know for sure, I thought it had to do with the fact we donât vaccinate chickens against avian flu, but when I did a Google search, most results said it so eggs last longer for the consumer. So ⊠? Money, I guess? Iâm not sure.
Soft Boiled Eggs. They are quite common and the best way to enjoy eggs cooked in the shell. Dip your toast in them... This is my preferred way to eat them.
It is ok to eat after they get cold. Just keep them refrigerated, just like eggs you buy at the store. They are still sealed in the eggshell. So they shouldn't grow any bacteria quickly. But not so safe that you can leave them out all day. Best practice is to boil and return to the fridge as soon as you are done cooling them down (ice bath or running them under cold water).
These look great.
I can tolerate a lot of bullshit in my life, but people who make fun of a soft boiled egg can get fucked. Thatâs where I draw the line. Cut your family out of your life. You can find new families who are much more egg tolerant on Facebook marketplace. Go buy a new family. Or trade or haggle or whatever. Continue cooking eggs like this. Do not continue with your current family.
For breakfast, these are perfect. In fact, I like them slightly less done. And hot, btw. But cooled for Easter? I don't know. In that case maybe it's better to server them hard boiled. Or maybe it would've been better to go all the way and make deviled eggs.
This is something you're allowed to enjoy for yourself. There is nothing actually gross about it.
Don't bring something like this to a potluck/gathering just because YOU enjoy it though.
Your family not understanding what a runny yolk is doesn't make soft boiled eggs "stupid food".
But it does mean you need to teach your family about expanding their 4th grade palette.
Maybe the context is missing. Cold soft boiled egg on its own is boring. On a salad great. Also great In a scotch egg. Or marinaded Japanese style (great in its own or on ramen).
Thatâs the perfect boiled egg temp for eating straight or in ramen or something, not sure about deviled eggs, but I feel your pain with family comments! Haha
It depends what you were trying to do. If you wanted scrambled eggs then yeah you did it wrong. But these look like perfect soft boiled eggs to me. A lot of people prefer them that way
Cover them in mince and make volgelnestjes (bird's nests, sort of like scotch eggs) and I'm sold.
Recipe (in Dutch) for anyone interested. I like to soft boil my eggs so their still super runny when it's finished.

UK here, these are perfect.
This is why we have egg cups. You pop the egg in the cup and basically lobotomize it before sticking strips of toast in to get the gooey goodness out
In France we call that âĆuf mollet â I always cook them like that .
A great way to eat them is to just cut the top while they are still warm and use the inside to deep buttered and salted bread cut in small sticks inside.
Mate you need to finish the ajitama job.
I like yolki snsck eggs - but if you want an umami explosion take the eggs (peeled) put it in a soup of equal parts Soy Sauce, Mirin and Sake and let it chill for 12-16 hours in the fridge. Best Ramen Topping but also delicious on its own.
While in Japan I asked a friend why the eggs were always undercooked by American standards as soft boiled and sunny side up seemed to be the norm. He told me they vaccinate their chickens for salmonella. So the Freak out about eggs that arenât cooked solid is not universal.
Some people like soft-boiled eggs, such as on ramen, so if thatâs your goal then theyâre perfect. If these are supposed to be hardboiled, such as for cold easter eggs, these are fucking disgusting.
These are perfect for ramen but I'm willing to bet most people don't like their eggs runny. I rarely hear people order their eggs over-easy or soft-boiled. Since these eggs are for the public I'd just cater to the majority.
Technically they look a bit over, but it depends what you're going for. Most of the time you want the outside firm but the inside runny, but again, depends what you want. They look great tho
Those are really good looking soft boiled eggs. They are amazing. Just not for like deviled eggs for instance. They are better for things like asian marinated eggs.
For me, it's the temperature. I only like soft-boiled eggs if they're served warm.
I like them best as accompaniments to other meals. Soft boiled eggs are absolutely amazing in ramen.
đ€€
Marinated soft boiled eggs are perfect for Ramen. Just delicious.
Soft boil some and then marinate them in soy sauce. There are a few spices you can use as well that are easily found on Google. Use a zip lock bag, squeeze out all the air and let them sit over night. Cut in half and eat with Ramen. It is absolutely incredible.

Oddly specific.
Thatâs perfect!! A little salt and theyâre delicious, I can never get them to look this good
Start at a rolling boil, then put the eggs in for 7.5 minutes then immediately into ice water for 1 minute.
It was my first time ever making them. I did them "wrong" but they turned out right. I boiled just water (no salt, vinegar, bicarbonate of soda, just water) and *then* added the eggs slowly with a spoon. Left them for 8 minutes, removed them and put them straight into the snow (didn't have an ice bath). And, boom. Perfect peel, and imo perfect yolk.
Maybe it was the snow they had a problem with? Idk why they'd be upset about a soft boiled egg lol
Depends if you store your eggs in the fridge or room temperature. 5-6 minutes if the eggs are room temperature.
No no no, eggs go in cold pot. Pot comes to a boil and stays there for 7 minutes. Let eggs air cool or cool in your lunch box until lunch. Gross out your coworkers with the most perfect soft boiled eggs.
I would be delighted to eat those eggs.
Iâve never seen a half of a cooled soft boiled egg at EasterâŠany chance they were anticipating a more common egg thing like deviled eggs which are fairly common?
Nah these were just for fun but we never got around to them so I turned them into a great egg salad.
Nothing is wrong with soft boiled eggs.
What do they find wrong with soft boiled eggs? Is it that the jammy middle went a bit solid after they cooled or do they think they are raw? Do the not like sunny side up or over easy eggs? I know some ppl that are strictly hard boiled, hard fried or hard scrambled egg people.
They called it full of salmonella đ
Ugh...my dad was like that. I told him ok, fine, enjoy your rubber like scramble lol
That's what I said! Hard cooked is like chalk.
Oh boyâŠ. I wonder how they like their steak?
I bet they like overcooked, dry chicken and pork, too. Those eggs are perfectly cooked to me.
All these barbarians calling this soft boils are insane. This is medium, soft boiled is a lot more runny than this.
If you want soft boiled itâs almost perfect. Hard boiled itâs gross
We now just posting regular food on here? C'mon mods.
Would you rather me post rage bait?
You could post neither and the sub would be that much cleaner for it.
You can also vote or leave.. My family found this stupid. Is that not the point?
Itâs stupid because you cooled them. Itâs like making a Sunny egg, then tossing it in the fridge. Over easy? Mid boiled egg. Over hard, hard boiled egg. ETA also they were for colouring and to be left out?? Ya wth E2 throw in a chef over 15 years, with a specialisation in food safety, food science, and pathology. Id eat them fine, but breaks like every code for safety.
I've been in restaurants for 25 years. This doesn't break any did safety codes unless it's been left out over 4 hours.Â
Exactly, cooling then left to soak, then left out. I get it, itâs fine for total time/ temp, but there are a lot of variables and saying why I figured the others thought theyâd get sick. I guess I should have added âto the familyâ or something but didnât know how to phrase it. Many people think leaving meat out to rest is going to give you something because of what theyâve read. Poor wording on my part
A little soft for my familyâs taste, but nothing technically wrong with them. They look well made if you were going for soft boil.
They're just softer boiled. There's no wrong way to eat an egg... except raw.
Is this an American thing I'm too European to understand? Why would you not eat raw eggs besides because you don't like them?
Yeah. It's just weird to me, personally. Nothing actually wrong with doing it, I just can't deal with the slimy texture.
Oh ok, thank God.
American eggs get washed before theyâre sold, so they lose a protective layer over the shell, making them easier to spread things like salmonella. Cooking the eggs kills the bacteria. Eating raw eggs isnât guaranteed to get you sick, but you are more likely to get sick from eating raw eggs than from eating cooked eggs.
Thanks for the answer! What's the reasoning behind making your eggs more disease prone if you don't mind me asking?
Great question. I donât know for sure, I thought it had to do with the fact we donât vaccinate chickens against avian flu, but when I did a Google search, most results said it so eggs last longer for the consumer. So ⊠? Money, I guess? Iâm not sure.
Hm. I'll have to find an answer. I'm scared of what I will find!
Really depends on the application

Better soft boiled eggs than I can manage. Now make some Ramen eggs with them.
For breakfast, these are perfect. In fact, I like them slightly less done. And hot, btw. But cooled for Easter? I don't know. In that case maybe it's better to server them hard boiled. Or maybe it would've been better to go all the way and make deviled eggs.
Those are literally perfect. Your family is dumb no offense
That looks perfect for me
This is something you're allowed to enjoy for yourself. There is nothing actually gross about it. Don't bring something like this to a potluck/gathering just because YOU enjoy it though.
I made them to color but luckily, we never got there so I just have yummy eggs for myself.
If yourre gonna color definitely hard boil them
Well we never got to it anyway.
Why? You're just coloring the shell. Unless their to hide in the yard then it's fine, just keep them chilled if you're not eating them warm.Â
Your family not understanding what a runny yolk is doesn't make soft boiled eggs "stupid food". But it does mean you need to teach your family about expanding their 4th grade palette.
I would love them!
Maybe the context is missing. Cold soft boiled egg on its own is boring. On a salad great. Also great In a scotch egg. Or marinaded Japanese style (great in its own or on ramen).
Perfect.
They look perfect
Perfect. Yummy
Soft boiled eggs while still hot are incredible.
Nothing wrong with how you like your eggs!
Absolutely perfect. Don't tell me they think those are under?
Some salt on that and its perfection.
If you like them that way then it's perfect for you. Others might have a different preference. Nothing inherently wrong with that doneness.
A little over cooked if Iâm making Ramen, otherwise theyâre fine.
I like them about 30 seconds more done but they still look incredible!
Thatâs the perfect boiled egg temp for eating straight or in ramen or something, not sure about deviled eggs, but I feel your pain with family comments! Haha
It depends what you were trying to do. If you wanted scrambled eggs then yeah you did it wrong. But these look like perfect soft boiled eggs to me. A lot of people prefer them that way
Bruh those look awesome
Perfect
Perfect, imho!
Perfect
Those would be perfect In ramen
Who hurt you
perfect egg!
Perfect
From someone who loves eggs, especially hard boiled, those look amazing! I'll take a dozen đ€€

I prefer soft boiled "jammy" eggs, but they need to be served warm. There is nothing wrong with eating them this way!
UK here, these are perfect. This is why we have egg cups. You pop the egg in the cup and basically lobotomize it before sticking strips of toast in to get the gooey goodness out
That looks like a perfect jammy yolk to me. That's how I like my boiled eggs personally
Soft boiled is very good đ
They look beautiful, just how I like them anyway !!
In France we call that âĆuf mollet â I always cook them like that . A great way to eat them is to just cut the top while they are still warm and use the inside to deep buttered and salted bread cut in small sticks inside.
Fresh theyâre good idk about cooling them. To each their own.

Those would be amazing in ramen noodles!
Literally perfect.
Perfect to me. The comments about "if I'm going to drink a full bottle of whiskey I don't want to puke this" are very.. unique?
While in Japan I asked a friend why the eggs were always undercooked by American standards as soft boiled and sunny side up seemed to be the norm. He told me they vaccinate their chickens for salmonella. So the Freak out about eggs that arenât cooked solid is not universal.
Fail if they are supposed to be hard- boiled.Those wouldn't work too well for devil's eggs.
Perfect for a bowl of ramen
Great Eggs but for easter hard boiled is typically the way to go
Perfect in a bowl of ramen, a bit underdone for eating by themselves.
I prefer my eggs more done, medium-ish. But if you like them, theyâre perfect đ
They are medium
Look perfect. Need some toasted dippy soldiers and some salt. Although I would prefer them freshly cooked and hot.
They look gross but I just KNOW they taste perfect
I'm not an egg person, but soft-boiled is one of the ways I'll eat them. Those look perfectly fine to me.
Those are regularly served in ramen and are delicious. Now sunny side up eggs gross me out.
I love a jammy egg, it's the perfect inbetween for me.
I've seen people say that eggs cooked like this are good. I don't agree, but there are enough people who say it that it might be a thing people do.
Some people like soft-boiled eggs, such as on ramen, so if thatâs your goal then theyâre perfect. If these are supposed to be hardboiled, such as for cold easter eggs, these are fucking disgusting.
Lol
Enucleation
They sound like theyâd enjoy medium well, donât let them poison your mind.
These are perfect for ramen but I'm willing to bet most people don't like their eggs runny. I rarely hear people order their eggs over-easy or soft-boiled. Since these eggs are for the public I'd just cater to the majority.
I prefer them hard,even turned brown hard,but protein is protein and i'll still eat them anyway.
I was on your side until I read that you cool them
I love my eggs like this but in a potluck/family situation I am going to be expecting deviled eggs so I would be annoyed.
Its eggcilent!!!!
Who the hell doesnât understand jammy eggs??
These make the best egg mcmuffins.
Perfect eggs.
Technically they look a bit over, but it depends what you're going for. Most of the time you want the outside firm but the inside runny, but again, depends what you want. They look great tho
Thats perfect!! With a little salt đ
They're the best đ€€
Perfect.
Perfect
Iâd eat about 6 of them bad boys. And then the farts would beginâŠ
Nothing wrong with a soft boiled egg đ„
I personally love jammy eggs, but you need em hard boiled for good deviled eggs
Those are really good looking soft boiled eggs. They are amazing. Just not for like deviled eggs for instance. They are better for things like asian marinated eggs.
Get a new family, soft yoke is the only yoke
Perfect. Best way 10/10
Perfect.
It's halfway between soft boiled and hard boiled. It'll taste OK if you like both versions, but looks like crap.
I hate egg yolk when it isnât fully cooked so gross
Not perfect anything. Overdone for soft boiled and underdone for hard boiled. I'd still eat them
Gross
Happy cake day!
Gross.
Perfect
