To produce eggs that have a very soft consistency, they can be cooked using a steaming method known as an “egg coddler.” To prepare the eggs, break them into the coddler and secure the lid in place using either a clamp or screw. Subsequently, position the coddler into a pot of simmering water, ensuring that the water level rises to about three-quarters of the way up the side of the coddler. Allow the eggs to steam for a duration of 6 to 8 minutes.
