Soft-boiled eggs
Description
I want to draw your attention to one important nuance: the eggs must be fresh and high-quality. If you are not entirely sure about this, it is better not to take the risk and boil them hard. You can serve the eggs on a slice of bread—it will be not only filling but also tasty. Serve with herbs and sauce.
