🥚 He says we’ve been boiling eggs wrong our whole lives — and millions agree. One simple change makes all the difference — no more green yolks or guesswork 😲👌 Full method and step-by-step tips in the article below!👇
Boiling eggs might seem like one of the easiest things to cook. But even this simple food has its own tricks. Sometimes, getting the eggs just right — whether soft-boiled or hard-boiled — takes a lot of trial and error (and wasted eggs).
According to American TikToker David Filch, there’s actually a perfect way to do it. The key lies in one important detail — the temperature of the water. Many people make the mistake of putting the eggs straight into boiling water, which can ruin the final result.
Boiling eggs this way can cause the yolks to turn a greenish shade. That’s a sign of a chemical reaction involving iron sulfide, which can be hard on your stomach and may lead to digestive issues.
David suggests using this method to make perfectly hard-boiled eggs:
Place the eggs in a saucepan, fill it with cold water until they’re fully submerged, and sprinkle in a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil, then let the eggs cook for exactly eight minutes. Then remove the pot from the heat and let the eggs rest in the hot water for another five minutes. Then, pour out the hot water and replace it with cold water.
If you follow these steps, the yolks will come out a beautiful, bright yellow — no gray or green rings.
Many of David’s followers have already tested his method and shared their results in the comments. They say it’s simple, easy to follow, and works like a charm. Some even called it brilliant.
