Hard boiling an egg can yield a chalky yolk, while cooking low and slow can produce jelly-like, undercooked whites. Researchers cooked hundreds of eggs and used math to tackle this runny conundrum.
Temperatures in the periodically-cooked egg white ranged between 35 and 100 degrees Celsius during cooking, while the yolk remained at a consistent temperature of 67 degrees Celsius.
