Hard-boiled eggs should be a kind of food that every kitchen novice can make, because it doesn't require superb cooking skills, nor does it need top-notch seasonings, it just needs us to put the eggs down at the right time.
I believe that many people's way to make boiled eggs is to directly use the pot to hold cold water, and then put the eggs down directly after beating **, and then take out the eggs and eat them after about ten or twenty minutes.
But you know what?The most taboo thing about boiled eggs is the pot under cold water, mainly because this method can easily lead to uneven cooking of eggs, and it will also make it difficult for the egg shell to fall off.
Specifically, if you put the egg in cold water and then boil it until the water boils, it involves a problem of uneven temperature between the inside and outside, the temperature inside the egg tends to be the same as the water temperature at that time, but the outside does not reach this temperature.
At the same time, this method tends to make the cooking time of eggs and water inconsistent. Since the temperature on the outside of the egg is lower, it takes longer for the egg to get cooked.
However, because the water has been boiled, the eggs inside have also begun to boil, which leads to the uneven cooking degree of the eggs inside and outside, so there will be a state that the egg yolk is still half-cooked even though the outside is cooked.
In addition, if hard-boiled eggs are placed in cold water, it is easy to detach the outer and inner layers of the egg white, which leads to the non-sticking of the egg white and the yolk, which is difficult to peel.
So the best thing to do is to put the eggs in the pot first, and then add enough water, the height of the water should cover the eggs so that they are soaked in the water, pay attention to the height of the water, be sure to soak the eggs.
Then put the pot on the fire, wait for the water to boil for another 6-10 minutes, after cooking, take out the eggs and put them in the prepared cold water to soak, you don't need to soak for too long, about five minutes is OK, after taking it out, you will find that it is very easy to peel.
But some people will be a little delicate, they not only want the eggs to be cooked, but also to be able to taste extraordinary, smooth on the outside and tender on the inside, so what do you have to do to cook such an effect?We're here to share it with you.
The first is to use fresh eggs, because fresh eggs will be more nutritious than old eggs, and the texture is tight, and the taste is naturally different from old eggs, and boiled eggs will be more tender and have a better taste.
When boiling eggs, add plenty of water, put the eggs in the pot, add a sufficient amount of water, don't just put the water halfway through the eggs, but so that the water can wrap the eggs.
Some people may think that this is a waste of gas or electricity, and that it is not worth the effort to put in so much effort, so we suggest that you don't have to follow our advice.
Because hard-boiled eggs are indeed eaten when cooked, it is just that some people like to eat eggs very much, so they are not willing to compromise on the texture, and they will be especially picky about the taste, and we also give advice so that they can cook eggs that they are satisfied with by hand.
The third step is to put the pot on the fire, wait until the water boils and then cook for six to ten minutes, this time does not need to be controlled so much, everyone can decide freely, and the time required will vary because of the different cooking tools.
Like some people use gas stoves, then pay attention to the heat, don't turn it on too much, although it may save a little time, but the taste will also be affected, slow cooking fire can make the egg whites and egg yolks evenly heated.
In terms of time, there is no need to say that the time must be put in six to ten minutes, some people like to eat hard-boiled eggs, but some people just think that the taste of medium-rare is the best, so this is also based on personal circumstances.
If you don't know what moderation is, you can boil an egg yourself, pay attention to the fact that too long will make the yolk hard, the time is too short, and the protein is not enough to coagulate.
After turning off the heat, soak the hard-boiled eggs in cold water for a few minutes, which is actually a very classic action, and then gently pinch the egg shell with your hand to let the water enter the egg, so that the shell will be easier to peel.
Be careful and gentle when peeling the shell, and if the shell is not peeled, rinse the egg with water, as the shell is more likely to fall off. This is because the outer cold and the inner heat of the egg will allow the outer shell of the egg and the inner part of the egg to separate, and the colder it is, the easier it is to peel off.
If anyone thinks that there are other better ways to make boiled eggs, you are welcome to point them out. After boiling the eggs, you can also spice them according to your preference, or if you don't like the dipping sauce, you can also eat them directly.
The above are a few details that need to be paid attention to in the practice of boiled eggs, and the hard-boiled eggs made by following these steps will definitely be tender and delicious, and the shell will be easier to peel. Hard-boiled eggs are nutritious and a very simple and easy-to-make delicacy that many people will enjoy.
