Thanks to a recent trip to a fabulous Proms Night I made an interesting discovery into the most basic of meals: the boiled egg. 

Try boiling an egg in the usual way, but as soon as the water boils, turn it down to a simmer and start to play The Marriage of Figaro Overture by Mozart (obviously, you do need to be a bit organised and have set it up in advance!) By the time it’s over, you’ll have the perfect soft-boiled egg.

Delia says to use an egg timer, I’d go for Mozart every time.
