Ingredients

  • 1 large egg (fresh from the fridge)
  • water (filled about half an inch)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a small saucepot, bring your water to a boil over high heat. Use roughly half an inch of water.
  • Once the water comes to a full boil, add the egg and cover the saucepot with a lid. Allow the egg to boil for 6 minutes and 30 seconds.
  • After the timer goes off, remove the egg and place it in an ice-water bath, or run it under cool water until it’s manageable to peel safely. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
