The steaming time may vary slightly depending on the size and freshness of your eggs, as well as the calibration of your stovetop. Feel free to experiment to achieve your preferred yolk consistency. For the easiest peeling, tap the cooled eggs gently all over to create small cracks in the shell before submerging them in the ice bath.
