Mornings with Simi ·

Mornings with Simi ·

2025/02/12

A team of Italian researchers have developed a method for cooking the perfect hard-boiled egg, a task that has long frustrated home cooks. Their research revealed that cooking an egg to perfection requires separate temperatures for its two main components: the egg white (albumen) and the yolk. The egg white cooks best at approximately 185°F, while the yolk requires a lower temperature of about 149°F. The technique involves two pots: one with boiling water and another with water kept at around 86°F
