Advice regarding eggs

At many of the guesthouses in Iceland one has the option of a kitchen, so Rob and I brought groceries with us for what is called a “self-catering” holiday. We’ve just discovered that in rooms without kitchen access we can make a boiled egg in the electric tea-kettle, which every room has.

Advice regarding eggs
Hard-boiled or soft-boiled eggs
Place the cold egg in a saucepan and cover it with cold water by least 1 in. (2.5 cm)
Cover the saucepan and bring it to a boil
Take it off the stove to stop it boiling
Let it sit in the water for 20 to 25 minutes for a hard-boiled egg or from 1 to 4 minutes for a soft-boiled egg
Drain and rinse in cold water
