To achieve perfection, Di Maio’s group, aided by mathematical models, simulations and experiments, invented “periodic cooking,” a method that calls for starting an egg in a pan of boiling water, leaving it there for two minutes, transferring it to a bowl of tepid water at 86 degrees Fahrenheit for another two minutes, and repeating the cycle eight times.

It looks like 6 cycles (24 minutes) would be just as good, and 5 cycles (20 minutes) pretty close.
