Boiled Eggs

I was stewing over what to have this afternoon before I dove into Chicken Paprikas for my dinner. It's weird that we depend on these little ground fowl for a lot of different things.
That's what made me want a "Soft Boiled Egg".

Recipe for a "Soft Boiled Egg and Toast" -

Tools

A pot that will comfortably fit 2 cups of water.
A teaspoon
A butter knife
A plate (medium or dinner size, depending on how much toast you want)
Toaster
Oven

Ingredients

Eggs (in the shell)
Becel, lard or salted butter (just pick one)
Bread slices

Preparation

For Soft Boiled Egg -

1. On one of the small elements on the top of the stove, set burner to MAX.
2. Place pot on burner with at least 2 cups of water inside.
3. Heat to a rolling boil.
4. Add egg to boiling water (place egg slowly into pot with teaspoon)
5. Boil egg for 4-5 minutes for soft boiled perfection.
6. Turn stove to OFF
7. Scoop egg from water with teaspoon and run under cold tap water until your hand can handle it.
8. Pick up butter knife and give the eggshell a good whack with the edge so as to give the shell a straight crack along the side halfway up.
9. Lightly scoop out the inside of the egg with teaspoon and place on inside on plate.

For Toast-

1. Some have the toaster in a cupboard, some have the toaster on the counter. Get your fucking toaster!
2. Put your bread into the toaster on desire "toast" setting.
3. When toast "pops" use the butter knife to spread butter on the toast, preferably when hot.
4. If toast is burnt, you're a loser, get more bread and start over. This time you may have to pop it yourself.
5 After toast is done with the desired amount of butter on it. You have achieved a nice tasty snack.

The reason for a soft boiled egg is so you can dip you toast in the yolk.
The albumen or "white" of the egg is like the meat. I prefer a lot of pepper and salt with my soft boiled egg and use roughly 2 eggs per meal with 3 slices of toast. Lots of good yolk sopping goes on with this combination.

If you're hungry I find this meal is great for a before dinner fix.
Just to let you know, I found the Chicken Paprikas great, even if it was a victim of the microwave. I found that a half bowl of corn chips and a cola went well with it.
