The ‘optimal’ boiled egg takes 32 minutes, scientists say. We tried it.
Italian scientists say they found the best way to make boiled eggs. We tried it, and (sorry, science) it’s not worth it.
Scientists Say They’ve Found the Perfect Way to Boil an Egg. It Takes 32 Minutes and Lots of Attention
The team used computer models of computational fluid dynamics, then tested out the painstaking—yet reportedly delicious—recipe for themselves
How to cook the perfect boiled egg, according to science
This photo provided by researchers in this month shows two pots, one with boiling water, left, and the other with a basket of eggs in lukewarm water, in a new method of boiling eggs dubbed “periodic cooking.”
It takes 32 minutes to boil a perfect egg, according to science. We agree.
Italian scientists claim to have found the scientifically best way to make a hard-boiled egg. After trying it for ourselves, we can confirm that the egg was delicious.
Best way to boil an egg revealed by scientists — it takes 32 minutes but ‘really is exquisite’
The perfect boiled egg consists of a velvety and creamy yolk with a soft, solid egg white that isn’t too watery. However, the bad news is that it takes over half an hour — 32 minutes to be exact — to get it perfect, according to science.
Science says this is the perfect way to boil eggs
There’s no single method to boil an egg, but a team at the Italian National Research Council’s Institute for Polymers, Composites, and Biomaterials now believe there is a “perfect” way to cook them. In order to make it, however, you’ll need some patience and a watchful eye.
