I don't eat pickled anything. I tried a pickled egg... or pig's foot...or something...once... I still suffer from PTSD.

I like the yolks runny. I think poached eggs are my favourite way to have eggs.

@RasmaSandra wow. thanks for the picture. so if you cook 6 eggs at a time, i guess you only eat some then store the rest in the fridge?

@TheHorse the egg cooker does it all you have to add water to a certain line for hard, medium or soft then plug it in and it does the rest something like 5 minutes I suppose and an alarm sounds and perfect hard-boiled eggs it also make omelets and poached but I haven't tried that yet Great kitchen gadget

I think 4 minutes of boiling gives you soft boiled eggs.

@Alexandoy Heh heh. Intuition is my timer. After I turn off the heat I just let things sit for a bit. So far so good. But 4:49 sound about right.

I make hard boiled eggs all the time and always keep a carton handy. But I cook them much longer. But they are delicious. Great by themselves, great in a salad, and from time to time I like to make a batch of deviled eggs too.

While I am not into eating eggs, this simple recipe is quite wonderful. In fact, many street vendors in many places in India sell something similar to this, and there are a few who make Thousands of Rupees a day(1 USD nearly 70 Indian Rupees)by selling them.

@TheHorse no you can invest millions of dollars and open a restaurant chain selling boiled eggs in a big Indian city. But perhaps you won't like the dust and pollution here. As for heat, you can have a good AC.
