Yeah, "recipe" is in quotes because this is not much of a recipe at all...more of a technique. I LOVE eggs when they are poached, or cooked over medium...anything that will get my my coveted "egg goo." It's sometimes tough to get the eggs perfect, since I need the whites to be fully cooked.
Enter the 6 minute egg.
I watch a lot of chef and cooking shows, and I have heard about this egg. The resulting yolks always have the magical egg goo consistency!! Of course I had to give it a try.
- Start with room temperature eggs. These sat out on the counter for about 40 minutes.
- Boil up some water in a pot. If you are bored while you wait for your water to boil, watch Project Runway :)
- When the water reaches a rolling boil, carefully place eggs into the pot.
- Set your timer for 6 minutes
- After 6 minutes, promptly remove eggs and place in a water bath to cool.
That's it!
Ohhh...gotta love the egg goo. I didn't have any bread in the apartment to make toast, so I put the egg on top of a toasted Eggo waffle. Amazing meal!
ohhhh, that egg "goo" on top of that waffle looks so heavenly right now!!!!
