Steamed Hard-Boiled Eggs, How to Make Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs Every

Now, grab your eggs. Straight from the fridge is fine. Place them gently into the steamer basket. Put the basket in the pot, slap on the lid, and lower the heat to medium so the water keeps a steady simmer.

Here’s the golden timer info. For a jammy, soft-boiled egg with a slightly runny center? Six and a half minutes. For a classic, fully set hard-boiled egg with a perfectly dry yolk? Twelve minutes. That’s it. No math.

The Ice Bath Is Non-Negotiable

I’ve left eggs in the ice bath while I finish my morning routine. Five minutes, ten minutes—no problem. They just wait there, being perfect. It’s the most cooperative breakfast ingredient you’ll ever meet.
