Soft Boiled Eggs With Saltines Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to boil and carefully lower the eggs into the water. Once water boils again, boil the eggs for approximately 3 1/2 minutes. (The eggs should be slightly runny but not hard-boiled.)
• Drain. Use a clean towel to handle the eggs and gently tap in half. Scoop out the egg using a spoon and place into a small bowl. Repeat.
• For each soft-boiled egg serving, I would guess that we used about 3-4 saltines. If you wish you can lightly butter the saltines, in which case you would break the crackers up with a knife. For unbuttered saltines, crush the saltine crackers lightly with your hands and place in the bowl with the shelled eggs.
• Using a fork, mix well; breaking up the eggs into small pieces. Season to taste with cracked black pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring the water to a rapid boil.
• add saltand keep it at a rapid boil.
• Prick the bottom (wider end) of the egg with an egg pricker
• Immerse in the boiling water and boil for exactly 5 minutes.
• Dash in cold water, crack & enjoy.

Steps:

• Fill a medium sized saucepan with water and bring to a rolling boil.
• Make sure your eggs aren't fridge cold. By having the eggs at room temperature, it will be less of a shock for the egg reaching the hot water and therefore less likely to crack. You can also use an egg pricker to make a very small hole in each egg before boiling, which will also reduce the chances of it cracking in the heat. Slowly lower the eggs into the water using a spoon.
• Set your timer for 4-5 mins for runny/dippy eggs to serve with soldiers, or 6-7 mins for soft-boiled eggs for a salad. If serving in a salad, plunge the eggs into a bowl of cold water as soon as the timer goes off - this will stop them cooking and cool the shells quickly for peeling.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add eggs, and cook for 3 minutes. The yolks need to be runny. While the eggs cook, crush the crackers into two coffee mugs with the butter. When the eggs are done, remove from the water, and peel. Place one soft-boiled egg into each cup. Mix into the crackers, and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Either soft boil or poach 2 eggs, leaving yolk runny.
• While the eggs are cooking, crumble 3 or 4 Ritz Crackers in a bowl, add butter.
• Add eggs when done and mix together. You may have to add more Ritz to make it thicker.
