Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 large eggs Fresh eggs yield the best results.
  • Salt For seasoning the eggs after cooking.
  • Pepper Adds a bit of zest and flavor.
  • Optional toppings Consider chives, hot sauce, or soy sauce for a twist.

Equipment

  • Sous Vide Precision Cooker
  • Large pot or container
  • Slotted spoon
  • Ice bath setup

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the Water Bath. Fill your large pot or container with water and attach the sous vide precision cooker. Set the temperature to 194°F (90°C). Allow the water to preheat while you prepare the eggs.
  2. Step 2: Prepare the Eggs. Gently place the 4 large eggs directly into the water bath. There’s no need to crack them open yet!
  3. Step 3: Sous Vide Cooking. Cook the eggs for 9 to 10 minutes. The longer you cook, the firmer the yolk will become, so adjust to your preference.
  4. Step 4: Create an Ice Bath. While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl with ice and cold water. This will stop the cooking process once the eggs are done.
  5. Step 5: Transfer to Ice Bath. Once the timer goes off, carefully remove the eggs from the water bath using a slotted spoon and immediately transfer them to the ice bath. Let them sit for at least 5 minutes.
  6. Step 6: Peel and Serve. Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell. Peel the eggs under running water to make the process easier. Serve with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and any additional toppings you desire!

Notes

  • Make sure your eggs are at room temperature for the best results.
  • Adjust cooking time for firmer or softer yolks according to your preference.
  • Don't skip the ice bath; it's crucial for achieving the right texture.
