These soft boiled eggs are cooked gently to make the perfect egg that isn't rubbery.
4 large eggs
cold water to cover eggs
coarse salt
freshly ground pepper
Place eggs in a saucepan large enough to accommodate eggs in a single layer. Fill pan with cold water, covering eggs by 1 inch. Place over medium-high heat; bring to a boil; remove from heat; cover; let stand 1 1/2 – 2 minutes.
Remove eggs from water.
Serve immediately while still hot in egg cups, no peeling is needed. Cut the egg in half with a serrated knife; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Use a spoon to scoop out the egg.
