Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Baking behavior varies by blend: some brown faster or stay softer, while others brown less. Follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.

Instructions

1
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a full rolling boil over high heat. Using a slotted spoon, lower the eggs one at a time into the boiling water. Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle boil and cook for exactly 6 minutes and 30 seconds for a jammy, slightly translucent yolk.
2
While the eggs cook, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with cold water and ice. When the eggs are done, transfer them immediately with the slotted spoon to the ice bath and let them sit for 5 minutes until fully cooled.
