hard-boiling
Firming egg yolks
Hard-boiling is cooking an egg in its shell until both white and yolk are fully set, typically by simmering for ten to twelve minutes.
The term extends to any process of toughening or hardening: Years of rejection had a hard-boiling effect on his personality.
In fiction, hard-boiling describes creating gritty, cynical narratives in the detective genre.
