	~~'''~~Coddled egg''' refers to an egg that has been cooked gently or lightly in water below boiling point. The term is derived from the process of coddling, which involves cooking food in water that is just below the boiling point. Coddled eggs are often used in various recipes and dishes, such as salads, sandwiches, and breakfast dishes.		== Coddled Egg ==

	~~== History ==~~		[[File:Coddled_Egg_on_hash.jpg\|thumb\|right\|A coddled egg served on hash]]

	~~The practice of coddling eggs has been traced back to ancient times~~, with ~~evidence~~ of ~~this~~ cooking ~~method found~~ in ~~various cultures around the world. The term "coddle" itself is believed to have originated from the Old English word "codd"~~, ~~meaning "~~to ~~pamper", which reflects the gentle cooking process involved in coddling~~.		A '''coddled egg''' is an egg that is gently or lightly cooked in water just below boiling temperature, typically in a [[coddler]], which is a small porcelain or ceramic cup with a lid. This method of cooking results in a tender egg with a soft white and a runny yolk, similar to a [[poached egg]].

	== Preparation ==		== Preparation ==

	To prepare a [[coddled egg]], the egg is ~~usually cracked into~~ a ~~small dish or cup~~, which is then ~~placed~~ in a ~~pan~~ of water ~~that has been heated to just below boiling point~~. The ~~egg is then cooked until~~ the ~~white~~ is ~~set but~~ the ~~yolk remains runny, typically for about 7 to 10 minutes~~. The cooking time can ~~be adjusted~~ depending on the desired consistency of the yolk.		To prepare a coddled egg, the egg is placed in a coddler, which is then submerged in a pot of simmering water. The water should not be boiling, as the goal is to cook the egg gently. The cooking time can vary depending on the desired consistency of the yolk, but it typically ranges from 5 to 10 minutes. The longer the egg is coddled, the firmer the yolk will become.

	~~== Uses ==~~		Coddled eggs can also be prepared without a coddler by placing the egg directly in the water, but this requires careful monitoring to prevent the egg from overcooking or cracking.

	Coddled eggs are often used in a variety of dishes. They can be served on their own, with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, or used as a topping for salads, sandwiches, and other dishes. In addition, coddled eggs are commonly used in recipes that call for raw eggs, as the coddling process can help to eliminate the risk of salmonella.		== Serving ==

	~~== Health Benefits ==~~		Coddled eggs are often served as part of a breakfast or brunch dish. They can be served on their own, seasoned with salt and pepper, or used as a topping for dishes such as [[hash]], [[salad]], or [[toast]]. The gentle cooking method preserves the delicate flavor and texture of the egg, making it a popular choice for those who enjoy a soft, runny yolk.

	Coddled eggs are a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. They are also low in calories, making them a healthy choice for those watching their calorie intake. However, it's important to note that coddled eggs, like other types of eggs, can be high in cholesterol.		== Nutritional Information ==

	== ~~See Also~~ ==		Coddled eggs are a good source of [[protein]], [[vitamins]], and [[minerals]]. They are rich in [[vitamin D]], [[vitamin B12]], and [[selenium]]. The gentle cooking method helps retain more nutrients compared to other cooking methods that involve higher temperatures.
