How Long Do I Boil Eggs?

Published in Cooking 1 min read

The time you boil eggs depends on how you want them cooked: soft, medium, or hard. Here's a guide:

After bringing the water to a rolling boil, turn off the heat and cover the pot. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for the following times:

  • Soft Boiled: 3 minutes
  • Medium Boiled: 6 minutes
  • Hard Boiled: 12 minutes

This method provides consistent results for perfectly cooked eggs every time.
