Hard Boiled Eggs email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 70/100. dianel (4437)   ranked 8 out of 353 in steak4 months ago

Okay I have never done this before. I usually over cook my eggs if anything and if they are too over cooked they taste funny. Anyway I was boiling some eggs for my salad tonight and when I started to peel one it was not done, under cooked. My question is can I put them back on and boil them after I had them sitting in cold water or wouldnt that be a good idea.

I am thinking that would not work out well but I haven't tried it so I can't say for sure.
My no fail way to hard boil eggs is put them in the water when it is cold. When the water starts to boil set the timer for 10 min. They are always fully cooked.

Yeah thats the way I do it but after coming to a boil i remove them from the burner and put the cover on for 10 min. I must have looked at the clock wrong.:(

I dont think they would turn out after being in cold water. I would throw those out and start new. I don't put my eggs in the water until the water is boiling and I have always been told to cook them for 15 mintues to make sure they are done and never had a problem.

Thats what I did I dont know I dont like to mess with eggs.

now i know how to make it hard, luvstochat. but don't you know that half-cooked hard boiled egg taste better? i love it and we call it "malasado" (medium rare) and it's kinda waste if you throw them. happy

Yes it's ok to reboil them, boil for 15 minutes & they'll be done...Doesn't harm the eggs any...Lori

I was just too nervous to do that Lori but I do believe they would have been okay, thanks.

This is a great site. I cook mine this way without any problems with cracking or shells sticking etc to the eggs. Hope it helps you.

that is actually my favorite when it comes to boiled egg, half-cooked as they say. and we call it here as "malasado". i never tried to bring the egg back to boil after soaking it to cold water. i think you can it try for yourself. happy

tried it before.... the egg just came out of the shell and it messes up... spreads all over the water... then in the end I just throw it because I cannot eat it... not good to look at and does not look good to eat...

It does not hurt to eat an egg if the yolk is not all cooked but I think the white should be. I put them in the cold water and then set the timer for eleven minutes right away and they are almost always perfect! My son likes them anyway!:)

Sorry you threw out your eggs...I sdo hate food waste but it does happen from time to time!

Sure you can. I have and they were fine. But also in saying that, I like my boiled eggs a little, I want to say raw but that isn't what I mean. I like them a little soft in the middle, where the yolk isn't totally hard but not runny either. But how do you recook the one you already broke the shell open? You would need to fry it or put it in the microwave.

I just had a really good cooked egg the other day, and it was cooked in the microwave, believe it or not. First time I have ever eaten an egg that was cooked in the microwave that wasn't rubbery. Just crack it and put it in a bowl and add some salt and pepper and beat it a little and then spinkle some grated cheese on top. Put it in the microwave for 1 minute and 10 seconds. Oh so good. Now that is the only way I am going to cook my eggs. I really liked it.
