Cook's Note: Firm or Soft Yolks?

Print this Recipe




Cooking eggs to a temperature of 160°F. kills salmonella.

For safety’s sake, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that people at risk (the elderly, children, pregnant women and people with compromised immune systems) consume eggs only if the yolk has been cooked until completely firm. People in good health, however, can safely eat eggs that are not completely firm by following these recommendations:

*Cook fried eggs 2 to 3 minutes on each side or 4 minutes in a covered pan.

*Cook scrambled eggs until they are firm throughout.

*Poach eggs for 5 minutes over boiling water.

*Cook soft-cooked eggs (in the shell) for 7 minutes in boiling water.

*Custards, omelets, quiches and other foods made with eggs should be served immediately or refrigerated.
