The Problem

As a devoted mukbang watcher, I always wanted to know how they’d get the jammiest egg in their buldack + wingstop videos… so I made this to recreate the most perfect soft white shell to the jammiest yolk 🙂‍↕️🍳 perfect for my at home ramen (lowk udon- udon on top)

Four levels

You choose how you like your yolk, and the timer does the rest.

Soft boiled (6 mins): runny yolk, made for dipping

a classic breakfast I enjoyed in london was ‘egg soldiers’. basically a classic British breakfast with of a soft-boiled egg served in an egg cup with thin, buttered strips of toast :> designed for dunking into the runny yolk.

Jammy egg (7 mins): runny-ish yolk, firm white

perfect for ramen/ rice bowls!

Hard boiled (10 mins): fully set yolk

for the on the go snack to garentee a free seat on the bus

Very hard boiled (12 mins): dry, crumbly yolk
