I boiled eggs for breakfast.
I’ll only eat three of these and save the rest as snacks for other days. I’m currently losing weight so this is just an easy way to curb my appetite. Fill a pot with water, add salt and bring to a boil. Add eggs and cook for 7 minutes. Remove eggs from pot and place in cold water until cool. Peel and eat with prefered seasoning. Enjoy!
Yes, they will taste different. Egg shells are porous in order to provide oxygen to the developing chick. While the egg is still uncooked, it will take on the tastes of outside ingredients fairly easily. As it cooks, the albumin coagulates and forms chains that prevent moisture and vapor exchange, so it becomes resistant to absorbing outside ingredients. As a result, your egg will pick up more curry taste if it is boiled from raw in the curry sauce than if you boil an already-cooked egg in the sauce.
from the citation above…
So even if you keep it whole. But tea eggs are so beautiful…
This was actually the first time I added salt.
It most likely does depending on the amount of salt. In the same at adding salt to cook pasta does.
They did taste good so I’ll probably continue to cook them this way.
