Remove the egg from the refrigerator before cooking to bring it to room temperature (or rinse it under warm water for a bit). If you're cooking multiple eggs, choose eggs of similar size. Pour water into a pot large enough to accommodate all the eggs on the bottom (there should be enough water to completely submerge all the eggs without any problems). Bring the water to a boil. Using a spoon, gently place the washed egg (or eggs) into the boiling water. Cook for 3.5-5 minutes (depending on the size and quantity of eggs being cooked).

After the specified cooking time has elapsed, remove the pot from the heat, carefully pour out the hot water, and replace it with cold water to slightly cool the egg and stop the cooking process. Once cooled, pat the egg dry and peel it. Then, transfer it to a plate or combine it with the other meal ingredients.
