What to do if an egg cracks while boiling and how to stop it from happening next time
Cracked eggs during boiling are common and usually safe to eat. The heat seals the crack, and any escaped white can be trimmed. To prevent cracks, bring eggs to room temperature, start with cold water, and avoid overcrowding the pot. Gentle handling and controlled heat are key to perfect boiled eggs.
