We had kind of a boring dinner of just junky ramen but I wanted to try to make a ramen-style soft-boiled eggs (without any kind of marinade or anything).

I tried to use 3 different times. The only thing to really consider is that the steam may have been less intense at the beginning and also opening the pot may have made a difference (though probably not much). And I am at ~5500 feet. That will affect this for other locations.

I did the times as:

• 7.5 minutes
  • Too soft, a bit watery of a yolk
  • You can see (kind of) how squishy it is in the picture.
• 9 minutes
  • The yolk was a bit past set. Maybe a bit too much
  • Less soft
• 10.5 minutes
  • Nearly hard boiled
  • Firm

I think next time, I will aim for 8.5 minutes.
