How do you cook eggs?

msgsoft boiled is the hardest to do, i can never get it perfect

put it in when the water starts boiling and give it 3 minutes then take it out.

ive tried lots of times, ive tried putting the eggs in when the water is cold then starting the timer when its boiling, ive tried putting the eggs in when the water is boiling then starting timer. ive tried slightly longer and shorter times. its always the same, either white is still not done or the yolk is too hard. Im just not good with soft boiled eggs.
Im good at cooking chicken foo yung though :)

NatewlieEgg is like chicken, it's a bland food, you're supposed to add things to it since there's not that much flavor.Also if you wanted to taste egg, just make scrambled or sunny side up

Add salt to the egg. There you go, you're tasting the egg, XD. Just because a food is classified as bland, it doesn't mean it doesn't have a taste. The only thing that really doesn't have any taste is water.

awesomebrosI tried to mix an egg with vinegar and then I fried it.Tasted terrible.

if you add milk to eggs and vinegar you will get mayonnaise. but frying it is still a bad idea

UniqueNinjaYou need to have a non-stick pan and to try many times to succeed ;D

Non-stick is death to cooking.To the op. Watch the film Angel Heart then go boil an egg. :)

How to boil an egg: Boil some water(no eggs). Put your eggs in a pot with some salt(how much salt depends on the hardness of your water, if in doubt add 1 desert spoon, worry not you will not eat this salt). Carefully pour your boiling water into your pot with the eggs and salt(if the egg shell splits then you have not enough salt).
Now heat your pot and bring it back to a boil. A boil is when the water is jumping out of the pot. Boil for 5 minutes and your eggs are done.Eat your eggs with a little butter and salt. (and never buy salted butter as it is not butter)

picking a hole in the bottom (large end) of an egg is supposed to stop them exploding but I can't say ive ever had it happen.

1prinnydood · #45Boil for 5 minutes and your eggs are done.

5 minutes would be hardboiled. 3-3.5 for softboiled.
