Interesting. It was Paul Theroux who snidely used the term "bobble hats" in "Kingdom by the Sea." To paraphrase Mark Twain, the coldest August I ever experienced was an August in London, long ago. This could turn into a "Yanks are strange" versus "Brits are weird" thread, easily. On Sat, Feb 4,

A soft-boiled egg loses heat quickly. The egg-cozy keeps the egg warm for the long trek from the kitchen to the dining room (or bedroom if we're talking breakfast in bed). In a country where they've only just discovered central heating, and mostly still seem to refuse to use it, a warm

Patrick, Flipping eggs is a fluid motion, gently work the pan in a slightly downward arc away from you at at the outermost point of the arc, give a gentle flip while returning the pan back towards youto catch the airborne omelette. Be sure to make sure the contents of the pan are loose

Just for something to do today, I made some soft boiled eggs as per Will's procedure, and they turned out great. Just the right consistency, and they peeled like butter. My girls were so excited. They asked "Is this the kind of eggs where you take off the top and eat it out of a little cup?"

Patrick, you have to have flip it without a spatula. In other words, with a flip of the wrist. Use a good, non-stick pan with butter. Let the bottom get nice and done. With a circular motion get the omelet moving around in the pan, then, once it's sliding well and toward the front, a flick

Boiled eggs are a waste of good eggs. ;>) But seriously, I've never had a soft-boiled egg and now I'm intrigued. I can't stand hard boiled eggs (sulphur flavored chalk, anyone?) but what I've seen of soft-boiled looks good! On Saturday, February 4, 2017 at 10:51:18 AM UTC-6, Steve

We go through up to 2 dozen boiled eggs a week in my household, a majority of that consumption is from me. I typically cook a dozen or so at a time, and go with the cold egg into cold water, bring to a boil and as soon as a boil is achieved, turn off the heat, cover and let stand for 9 - 10

FWIW , I always drop my cold-from-the-fridge eggs directly into the boiling water and only rarely does one crack, and if it does it seals very quickly. I boil about 8-10 at a time. I let the water boil again with the lid on, stop the heat and just let them sit in the pot w/lid on, as in just

I never had good boiled eggs (I like them medium-to-hard) until I learned to put them in the pan with cold water, bring to a boil, and then time. Perfect every time. Dropping eggs into boiling water was inconsistent and lead to broken shells at least half the time. YMWNV. Chris On Friday,

Ron, you've got my stomach growling! +1 on using at least week old eggs for ease of peeling. I fought that like crazy years ago until I read that. Also, cage free organic seem to peel easier as well. As far as the yolks, which I like softer too, I drop (ease with a spoon) them into boiling
