##FAQs

###1. Why use cold water to boil eggs?

Starting with cold water lets you heat the egg more slowly, which keeps the whites from getting rubbery.

###2. Why should I use older eggs for boiling?

Older eggs are more alkaline, which makes the eggshells easier to peel off after boiling.

###3. Can this method be used for soft boiled eggs?

Yes. For soft boiled eggs, follow the same steps, but reduce the sitting time from 12 to 4-5 minutes.
