I prefer jammy eggs for this recipe, but here are my guidelines for cooking time: - Jammy Eggs: Boil for 6 minutes. The whites will be set and the yolks will be creamy. - Medium to Hard-Boiled Eggs: Boil for 7–8 minutes. The whites are firm and the yolks are mostly set but still a bit creamy. - Hard-Boiled Eggs: Boil for 9–10 minutes. The whites and yolks will be fully cooked and firm.
