Quick & Easy Soft-Boiled Eggs
Get perfect soft-boiled eggs every single time with your Instant Pot! Soft-boiled eggs are a dream to top salads, as a quick snack next to some crunchy veg, and a great fast source of protein on the go.
The Instant Pot is working its magic once more here. If you don’t have an Instant Pot or multi-cooker yet, GET ON IT! I love this appliance so much I have TWO. Yes, really. I own TWO instant pots (one 6qt for smaller meals and things like soft-boiled eggs and super speedy spaghetti squash, and an 8qt IP for batches of soup, stews, and stock!)
The instant pot makes soft-boiling eggs ridiculously easy (and consistent! The key is timing. Be sure to quick release the pressure and have your ice bath ready to dunk your eggs. This stops the cooking process and keeps those yolks runny.
Pressure cooking eggs also makes them infinitely easier to peel!
