Hi guys! Hope you're well.
嗨，大家好！希望你们一切都好啊。
Okay today we're gonna do something very challenging -we are gonna learn, I'm gonna teach you, how to boil an egg.
今天我们要做点非常有挑战性的事，我要教你们学做煮蛋。
Yes, you heard it right. Boil an egg.
是的，你没听错。学做煮鸡蛋。
Now a lot of people kind of get confused to this, I don't know why a lot of people have conversations about how they do it best and there's some very strange methods of doing it,
很多人会对煮蛋感到困惑，我不知道为什么很多人都在谈论如何把鸡蛋煮得最好，还有一些非常奇怪的做法，
so I thought I would give you a rock solid, perfect way to boil an egg every single time. Time in time out.
所以我想要教给你们一种完美靠谱的煮蛋法，每次都能煮出超棒的鸡蛋。
So let's just kind of talk through the variance and how to get it perfect.
我们来讨论一下差异，以及如何煮出完美的鸡蛋。
If you want to cook the perfect boiled egg every single time you need the same sized egg.
如果每次都想煮出完美的鸡蛋，就需要用同样大小的鸡蛋。
So you'll get different sized eggs in the supermarket, you'll get large, medium, sometimes small and sometimes double yolkers.
在超市里，你会买到不同大小的鸡蛋，大的、中个的，有时是小的，还会有双蛋黄。
So this is for a large free-range organic egg.
这是一个散养母鸡下的大个有机鸡蛋。
So we have a pan of boiling water.
这有一锅开水。
To that pan I'm going to add a tiny tiny tiny pinch of salt.
往锅里加点盐。
Why would we do that?
为什么要这样做？
Because inside this egg is a tiny tiny amount of salt, so one of the theories about not having your boiled egg crack and then leak everywhere,
因为这个鸡蛋里面有一点点盐，一种说法是，如果不想让鸡蛋破裂，
is to put a tiny bit of salt to kind of balance the amount in here and then it doesn't try and osmosis it through the shell.
就要在锅里放一点盐来平衡盐的含量，这样蛋液就不会渗透到壳外了。
Okay now on that conversation, the shell is the most incredible natural protection from the egg, so you don't want to put it in the fridge.
说到这，蛋壳是最不可思议的天然保护物，所以不用把它放在冰箱里。
A) because they don't need to go in the fridge and B) it's very porous so this will suck up any smells in the fridge which is probably not a good thing.
第一，因为不需要把它们放在冰箱里。第二，蛋壳上有很多小孔，它们会吸收冰箱里的各种气味，这可不是一件好事。
So that goes in with a slotted spoon, pop it in the water and just dip the egg in and out two or three times and then gently place it on the bottom of the pan.
用一个有槽的勺子把鸡蛋放到水里，拿出水再浸入水中重复两三次，然后轻轻地放在平底锅的底部。
So from room temperature they go into boiling water. I'm going to put three eggs in and one for luck that's for soft-boiled, semi soft-boiled and hard-boiled.
把它们从室温状态放进沸水中。我要放三个鸡蛋，还有一个就是碰运气煮了，三个分别煮成半熟，七分熟和煮硬。
So for soft boiled it's five and a half minutes on the head. So set your timer and get ready to go.
做熟的蛋，需要煮五分半钟，定好计时器。
For semi soft-boiled it's seven 1/2 minutes and for hard-boiled it's like 11 to 12 minutes.
做七分熟的蛋，要煮七分半钟，而煮硬则要用11到12分钟。
So as simple as boiling an egg is, there's lots of different people's techniques, some logical some completely illogical.
像煮蛋这样简单的事，都有不同的方法，有些合乎常理，有些完全是莫名其妙。
I've heard people swear by methods of putting eggs into a pan of cold water, bringing it to the boil and then turn it off as soon as it comes to the boil and they're ready.
我听说有人把鸡蛋放进一锅冷水里煮，只要水煮沸就立刻把火关掉，蛋就煮好了。
It depends on the size of the pan, it depends on the power of the gas or the heat source, you know it's really random.
这取决于锅的大小，燃气或火的热度，真的没有什么定式。
So doing this, like boiling water is not random, okay? Having an egg roughly at room temperature, give or take, is not random.
像煮开水不是随意做的，鸡蛋在室温状态下，不是随意的。
So we put it in there soft-boiled - five and a half minutes, semi-soft boiled - seven half minutes, hard-boiled - eleven to twelve minutes. Perfect.
所以做半熟的蛋，就煮五分半钟，做七分熟的蛋就煮七分半钟，煮硬就用11到12分钟，太完美了。
Okay lovely people so the first egg is done. This is our five and a half minute egg.
亲爱的们，第一个鸡蛋煮好了，这是煮了五分半钟的鸡蛋。
What I tend to do is make sure you put it up the right way. Yes, this is very hot by the way, there is a round side and a sharper side, so I always go the sort of blunter side up.
要确保把鸡蛋摆对方向，顺便提一句，蛋超烫，它一头是圆的，另一头有点尖，所以我总是把圆头朝上放。
So that is our five and a half minute egg. If you leave that in the shell and just watch it, it will carry on cooking.
这就是煮了五分半钟的鸡蛋，如果你让它待在壳里看着它，它会继续煮。
That shell is like a mini oven, right, so you want to kind of get on with it and eat it.
蛋壳就像一个迷你烤箱，对吧，现在你想要吃它啦。
So I'm just gonna crack off the top and there you've got a really nice soft-boiled egg. Cooked to perfection. Absolutely lovely.
我从上面把它敲裂，这就是一个煮得很好的半熟鸡蛋，做得真棒，好香啊。
So the second egg has had seven and a half minutes, this will give you a medium soft boiled egg.
第二个鸡蛋煮了七分半钟，这会是个煮到七分熟的鸡蛋。
So if we have a little look in there, there you go, half firm, half soft. Absolutely beautiful.
让我们来看看，快看，一半硬，一半软。太漂亮了。
Okay so this one has had eleven minutes and that should be a reliable hardboiled egg.
这个蛋煮了11分钟，应该已经煮硬了。
Perfect for sandwiches, salad, stuff like that. The best way to test is with a soldier as we call it, a little bit of toast. Lovely.
非常适合放在三明治、沙拉之类的食物里。最好的测试方法是用一小条烤面包片蘸一下，太棒了。
So there you go guys, a little pinch of salt on top and that is a beautiful, simple, humble, boiled egg, cooked to perfection every single time. Absolutely beautiful.
在上面撒点盐，这样就做出了漂亮、简单、易学的煮蛋，每次都能做得非常完美，太漂亮啦。
