Eight minutes covers a lot of kitchen jobs: many dried pastas cook in eight to ten minutes, and a large egg is fully hard-boiled in about eight. It is also a popular length for a quick core workout. Press Start, step away from the stove, and the alarm calls you back when the countdown ends.
Ways to use this timer
- Cooking spaghetti or penne to al dente
- Hard-boiled eggs for salads and lunch boxes
- An eight-minute core or ab routine
Questions
How long should I boil eggs for hard-boiled?
About eight to ten minutes in boiling water for a large egg, then cool them in cold water so the shells peel more easily.
