Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Water

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Boil the Eggs

    Once the water is boiling, gently lower the Jidori eggs into the water using a slotted spoon. Boil for exactly 6-7 minutes for a soft yolk.

  3. 3

    Ice Bath

    While the eggs are boiling, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with ice cubes and cold water.

  4. 4

    Cool the Eggs

    After the boiling time, immediately transfer the eggs into the ice bath to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Peel and Serve

    Carefully peel the eggs under running water to make it easier. Sprinkle with salt and serve immediately.
