Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 1

4 large eggs

Steps:

  • Fit a large pot with a rack and fill with water. Place over lowest possible heat.
  • Heat water to between 140 and 145 degrees; add eggs to pot. Cook eggs 40 to 45 minutes, checking temperature regularly; add ice cubes if water gets too hot.
  • Use eggs immediately or transfer to an ice-water bath to chill. Drain, and transfer to refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Warm eggs under piping hot tap water for 1 minute before using.
  • To serve eggs, crack them, one at a time, into small individual saucers. The thin white should not be firm or solid. Carefully pour off loosest part of white before serving.

These were a great way to use up some leftover eggs. They're also a healthy and delicious option for breakfast.
