🥚 PERFECT SOFT BOILED EGGS 🥚
In small saucepan, bring enough water to completely cover the eggs to a rolling boil. Reduce temperature to med and when the water is at a low simmer, gently add eggs. Avoid dropping them in the pot as they may crack.

Cook chicken eggs for 6 min (or duck eggs for 7 min) uncovered. I like to stir them every few minutes to prevent the yolk cooking more on one side.

Once cooked, drain out the boiling water and fill the pot with cold water. I personally don’t do an ice bath because I don’t want my eggs cold to eat.

Crack the eggs gently all the way around and put in the pot of cold water to allow water to get under the membrane. Leave eggs for 5 min, peel gently under running water and enjoy.

🥦 Almost all of my vegetables are either steamed in my @goodcooks Microwave Steamer or water sautéed and then seasoned afterwards. This keeps them fresher looking and since I am not a fan of soggy vegetables I can control the level of crunch which I appreciate. Plus of course it is less points than cooking in oil or butter. If I want those for flavor, I add it at the end.
