I have seen a lot of videos on doing soft boiled eggs in the microwave. This has been the best.

I did this earlier. I'm so glad i checked out YT first before putting that egg in the microwave. My first try at 4 minutes got me a really runny egg. Still good though! I guess next time i should go for 5. I want a soft boiled one. Thanks!

Thank you so much for watching! On top of adding an extra minute in the microwave, also remember the egg will continue to cook if you leave it in the water for a while after removing it from the microwave. 🤠👍

lol I wish I would’ve read this comment before I did mine because I did the same. 5 minutes definitely seems the way to go.

Wow, now I can hardboiled just one egg to make a personal egg salad for one sandwich 🥪

what if you are doing multiple eggs?

Good question, I wouldn't do way too many eggs at once; however, if you'd want to increase it to 2 or 3 here's what to do. first you will have to add more water and salt. Second, the more water you add the longer it will take for the microwave to boil the water. Third make sure your container is just wide enough or just deep enough to make sure the eggs can be submerged. Once the water is steaming then you're pretty good you do not have to wait for it to actually look like it's boiling. Keep on adding one minute at a time until you see the water steam. Hope this helps, have a great day.

TY

I have a thousand one hundred watt microwave at home that I used. I believe about 4 minutes for 1,200 w and approximately 7 minutes for a 700 watt. Good question. Thanks for watching

What’s the green sulfur around the boiled egg from

@Randysfamilykitchen

Ай бұрын

The green ring is harmless and safe to eat. It is caused by overcooking and or a high iron content in your water. I might suggest reducing your cooking time by a little bit at first, and see if that helps. Thank you kindly for watching my video!

Thanks for the tutorial, but I am a little confused. "The magic ingredient when hard boiling eggs is salt." Do I not add the salt if I'm soft boiling it?

@Randysfamilykitchen

2 ай бұрын

ADD salt. Sorry for any confusion, yes add the salt for the soft boiled eggs too. If you do not add the salt the egg will bust open in the microwave and make a mess.

What is the science behind the salt hack? (If you know?)

@Randysfamilykitchen

Ай бұрын

microwaves are partially blocked by salt ions, preventing them from reaching the egg. Also, salt water heats more slowly in a microwave than pure water, causing the egg to cook more gradually... more like boiling an egg on a stovetop. Thank you for watching my video. 😁

just salt stops it from exploding?? what is this sorcery??

@Randysfamilykitchen

Basically a microwave heats by vibrating molecules through micro wave. The salt makes the water vibrate at a different rate. microwaves are partially blocked by salt ions, preventing them from reaching the egg. Also, salt water heats more slowly in a microwave than pure water, causing the egg to cook more gradually... more like boiling an egg on a stovetop. Thank you for watching my video. 😁

Oh well i guess my 3 minute eggs need more time 🤔 😂 I'll add salt and pop them in for vouple more minutes

Good luck, and thanks for watching my video. With different microwaves having different wattage you might have to adjust the times. And yes, please don't forget the salt. LOL.

The salt causes the water to vibrate at a different rate when cooking in the microwave, that prevents the egg from exploding.

Guy puts hard boiled for 5 min but writes on plate for 10 min. Doesn’t say the time for soft boiled and writes 0 min. What a tool.

If you actually paid attention to the video, you would realize that's how long you leave it in the hot water, to continue cooking. Seriously don't comment if you're just going to be a troll.
