The boffins have been busy.

Boiling an egg just as you like it has always been a hit and miss task.

Now, thanks to the boffins you will be able to get perfect results every time.

This thread is just ripe for a slew of ghastly puns isn't it?
I eggspect they'll start to pour in shortly.

I like mine hard yolked, cold, eaten with nothing more than salt and pepper.

Cooked by someone else :) .

I can't cook them. They always go wrong :(

I like making soldiers with little pepper smiley faces though.

Aww, I'll make you boiled eggs M. :)

I love making egg stuff. My Scrambled eggs are ace! :)

I think boiling an egg to anyone's particular preference is the most difficult task in the kitchen and akin to producing the perfect souffle.

How do I like my eggs in the morning?


I like mine with a kiss :)

Me thinks you are coming round for breakfast soon x

I like my boiled egg to have a cooked white, and a runny yolk, its that timing thing that always gets me, a second too short and you get a snotty one, and a second too long and you get a hard yolk......

I'd settle for the hard yolk rather than the snotty egg any time :)

As it's a good 40 minute walk, I think I'll sleep on the couch, then make you breakfast. Will be even more awkward if I move to Manchester. :(

I like mine hard :thumbsup:

I like mine hard :thumbsup:

Tut! :rolleyes: :)

All this talk of eggs is making me feel quite sick:gag: they are vile any way.

Seriously, what is is that ppl like about them:confused: :huh:

I would prefer them unfertilised, oooh sorry boiled eggs, nice n runny wiv toast cut into soldiers :D

Just how my grandma used to cook them :thumbsup:

boil a pan of water, set the microwave for 3 and a 1/2 mins, pop in a tablespoon of salt to the water (to stop eggs cracking), add eggs, start microwave, pop in toast, when time is up remove eggs from water and serve, perfect every time.

i like the white bit hard & the yellow bit runny. i can never do them properly i always end up with the white bit still a bit runny YUCK! my favourite eggs are duck eggs they always taste soo much nicer.

I like mine runny so I can dip soldiers in them.

I prefer to eat my boiled egg. I attempted to wear one like a shoe but it crumbled at the first step.
