How long do you boil an egg?

If wanted to make a hard boiled egg, how long do I boil it?

Answer #1

2 mins

Answer #2

5 hours if you live in the middle of the desert and you are boiling it over a fire!!

DUH!!!

Answer #3

We always put the eggs in the cold water, brought the water to a boil, reduced heat to simmer, then cook until they float.

For soft boiled eggs bring water to rolling boil, add the eggs, cook 3 minutes, then remove. Of course soft boiled eggs are not fully cooked so there is some risk eating them this way. If you get a bad egg it can make you sick.

Answer #4

Allow the water to come to a complete boil before adding in the eggs.. Then I usually leave the eggs in the boiling water for about 10 minutes!!!

Answer #5

about 10 to 15 minutes on high

Answer #6

10-15.. then they are perfect. you can even go to 20minutes and they will be just great! :)
