Soft-boiled eggs are a delightful addition to any meal, offering a creamy yolk encased in a tender white.

Using a saucepan with a lid can help the water boil faster.
Carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water using a slotted spoon.
Lower the eggs gently to prevent cracking.
Boil the eggs for exactly six minutes for a soft yolk.
Set a timer to ensure precise cooking time.
Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
This step makes peeling the eggs easier.
Peel the eggs and serve them with a sprinkle of salt.
Roll the egg gently on a hard surface to crack the shell evenly.
