Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg

    Start by removing the egg from the refrigerator and letting it come to room temperature for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cooking Method

    You can either boil, scramble, or fry the egg based on your preference.

  3. 3

    Boiling Option

    For a boiled egg, place the egg in a pot of cold water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer for 9-12 minutes depending on how well done you like it.

  4. 4

    Scrambling Option

    For scrambled eggs, crack the egg into a bowl, whisk it, and pour it into a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Stir gently until the egg is fully cooked.

  5. 5

    Frying Option

    For a fried egg, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add a little oil or butter, crack the egg into the pan, and cook until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your liking.

  6. 6

    Serving

    Once cooked, serve immediately while hot. You can season with salt and pepper to taste.
