Perfect boiled egg

Boiled egg has to be one of the easiest things in the World to cook. I like to make this on Sundays, when breakfast is a leisurely pleasure rather than a mad rush. For me a perfect boiled egg is one that has a runny - but not too liquidy - yolk and firm - but not hard - white. This is my perfect boiled egg recipe.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Put enough water in the pan so that the egg is covered by 2 cm. water. Take the egg out, bring the water to boiling point and then carefully put the egg back in with the help of a large spoon, taking care not to break the shell
- 2
After five minutes (exactly 5!) turn the heat off, pour the hot water down the sink and run the cold water tap over the egg for a few seconds. This stops the cooking process from continuing.

Take the egg and gently tap one end on a hard surface to make little cracks. Gently peel the shell of this end. Then with the help of a teaspoon, ease the egg out of the shell and onto the slice of toast.

Cock-A-Doodle-Doo Chicken and Chick for Bento Cock-A-Doodle-Doo Chicken and Chick for Bento
I made a chicken and chick pair using both the whites and the yolk of a boiled egg.If the egg is half-boiled, it will be difficult to cut and the yolk would ooze out, and if the egg is over-boiled, the yolk could crumble into pieces, so I think that boiling it for about 10-12 minutes is best.

Steamed egg is easy to make but difficult to perfect. It will be gelatinous and smooth if done perfectly, whereas an overcooked one will look like the moon surface.

Mickey Mouse Shaped Boiled Egg Mickey Mouse Shaped Boiled Egg
I was asked to make the Mickey Mouse shaped boiled eggs that are sold at Tokyo Disneyland, so I gave it a good try. After a lot of trial and error I was finally able to make this. But I'm still working on it so that I can emulate the creamy texture of the original.-The ratio of Mickey's face to his ears should be 2:1 if you're going for a cuter look. The authentic Mickey has ears almost the size of his face, however, so you can adjust the ratio as you like.-To bring out the bright yellow of the yolk, you should lay a cut sheet of parchment paper on the surface of the egg before you boil it.
