How To Hard Boil an Egg

Step 5Wait for the water to Boil

Wait for the water to Boil
This is the boring part, there is no way to really speed up this part because you don't want the egg to get to hot to quickly or else it will crack. When the egg reaches a full or rolling boil you need to start your timer (or just look at the clock).

For a hard boiled egg, boil for 7 minuets
For a soft boiled egg, boil for 3 minutes

I attached a video of the egg at a full boil

Here is the video (I also posted It on youtube)
