Both of you. please buy a cooking book. I'm sure there is something like "Cooking for men living alone for the first time in their lives".

  • you always poke a hole in the bottom of the egg, otherwise it will split the shell.
  • 7 minutes?? what are you cooking? Ostrich eggs? at most 4 minutes for runny yolk, maybe a bit more for large eggs.
  • rinse the eggs in cold water when finished. more cold, more better, helps detaching the shell.
  • how do you even measure time when you put them in before the water boils??? don't do that. smh

    Wow sounds like you also need a good prick up the bottom to release all that air you absolute insufferable gasbag.

    My advice came from Kenji López-Alt, specifically from this video: https://youtu.be/hb0Elaa6gxY Now I don't know where you're from and what kind of eggs you're used to, but in Europe we have normal eggs straight from the chicken's ass and that's how long they take to boil.

    You should have added that you live above 4000m where water boils at 86 degrees centigrade.
    Then 7 minutes to soft yolk make total sense.

    Oxygen starvation might then also explain your very strange insult game.

    So no response to Kenji's video huh? What do you have to say to Kenji? Is he wrong? Is he cooking his eggs for too long? Are you a better chef? Sounds to me like you're just a reactionary internet expert but in reality you can't even boil an egg.
