How long do I boil the eggs?
The answer depends on how you like your boiled eggs. For soft-boiled eggs, bring water to a boil then carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water. Cook for 3 minutes for runny yolks or 4 minutes for firmer yolks. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl of ice water to cool.
For hard-boiled eggs, bring water to a boil then carefully lower the eggs into the boiling water. Cook for 10 minutes for firm whites and set yolks. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl of ice water to cool.
To make things easier on yourself you could also just hard boil your eggs in your instant pot.
