Soft-boiled eggs are just a bit too firmly ‘egg shaped’ to make a good benedict.
Poached eggs are flatter and the white is softer.
Also, to easily prevent the egg white from coming apart when you drop the egg in, just add a dash of vinegar to the boiling water. It causes the white to stick together.
I don’t know if anyone in the world does this too, but here in Germany, (when not using dried egg) we just use boiled egg and cut it in slices with an Eierschneider 🤣

So it’s mostly about the shape so that you can put the egg on toast? That I can understand but I think I prefer fried egg on my toast 😬
Yep. A Benedict or a Cali, the egg will roll off if it’s not flat.
