Boiled eggs are one of the ways to have a tasty and quick breakfast or snack without compromising your health.
A useful opportunity to saturate the body with protein in minutes will present itself if you eat 1-2 boiled eggs.
How to Boil an Egg
Boiling eggs won't take you much time if you follow simple cooking rules.
Pour water into a saucepan, drop in the eggs, turn on the heat, wait for the water to boil, cook until done, taking into account your preferences (soft-boiled, soft-boiled, hard-boiled).
Cooking Features
Eggs are a delicate product and during cooking they can crack, their contents will end up in water and the whites will curdle.
To avoid trouble when cooking eggs, use a few life hacks:
- do not put cold eggs in water, take them out of the refrigerator 10-20 minutes before cooking;
- Salt the water in which you boil eggs, throw a few sulfur-free matches into the water – and the eggs will not crack.
Eggs should not be overcooked, otherwise they will have an unattractive appearance, a greenish or bluish rim will appear around the yolk.
Cook the eggs for 3 minutes after boiling if you are putting them in cold water. When putting the eggs in boiling water, 1-2 minutes is enough, and let them stand under the lid for up to 5 minutes.
Cook eggs properly to ensure that the product brings maximum benefits and is truly tasty.
