Wanted to try and get a perfect soft boiled egg for breakfast this morning, incredibly happy with the result.

Did them for 8 minutes at 90c, ice bath for 2 minutes or so afterwards to stop the cook and help peel.

    Highly recommend gettin a little egg cooker off amazon, very cheap and makes perfect soft boiled eggs every time.

    I do air fryer for 310, 11 min. Ice bath right away then they’re perfect.

    I like 145 for 40 mins. Those look great tho. Might have to try it!

  5. Were your eggs cold from the fridge, or room temperature?

    I realize what sub we’re in, and it’s cool from an experimental standpoint, but this feels like reinventing the wheel. 

    You’re cooking eggs in water that is almost boiling, and you’re having to use a timer to make sure the eggs don’t get overcooked.  I guess if you’re in a situation where you don’t have a stove or a hot plate it makes sense. But it’s super easy to get water to exactly 10 degrees (Celsius) hotter with a pot and burner.  In both cases you’re having to use a timer anyways (just like 6.5 minutes instead of 8).

    Don’t get me wrong though, the eggs look great, OP.
