Thanks, anon. That laugh helped me feel less retarded.

Is that all? Maybe simmering is really my problem...

Also do a whirlpool before adding the egg

with a small pot like that you do want a fairly vigorous boil to a) set up the white quickly so it catches bubbles and b) have the heat recover quickly so the bubbles are even there in the first place.

once it's set up you can basically turn the heat off.

Do you have vinegar in the water?
Vinegar will solidify the eggs before they touch the bottom

Oh, I see. Thanks. I'll try this tomorrow, then. Do I need to cover it, or is it fine without that?

I'll also try adding vinegar tomorrow. How much do you think I'll need?

General Grievous pls go

I don't have anything wider than that except a nonstick pan.

also i like to pour the eggs from a cup not directly from the shell, and they should be really fresh, water should be boiled then turned down till barely simmering then swirled, dont salt it and the vinegar thing i wouldnt even bother with
