Lol, 60g healthy european chonkers, straight from the fridge into boiling water, then ice bath right after (if more than 2-3 eggs i’ll go a tad shorter because of post-cook thermal load)

Whites firm and yolks perfectly runny, sliced in two with maldon salt to top. Perfection in two bites.

Hahah, yeah, don’t know, just how I was raised I guess. My fridge came with one of those egg racks and I like having them out the box ready-to-go, plus it doesn’t harm them and they should stay fresher for marginally longer.

Edit: Also probably helps my heat gradient on those perfect runny yolks but set whites!
