[Sca-cooks] coddling an egg

[Linda Kelley-Nordlund]

I have read with interest re:) coddled eggs.  In my Culinary Arts classes we
were taught to crack the egg in a bowl then carefully slide the egg into a
pot of softly boiling water (so not to break the yolk) and cook until the
egg is cooked to your desire ( 3 min ?).  Remove the egg with a slotted
spoon (to drain).  This is usually served on a piece of toast. Sometimes
served with a sauce i.e. Hollandaise.
