May One Pour Hot Water on an Egg on Shabbat?

May One Pour Hot Water on an Egg on Shabbat?
Day: Wednesday
Date: August 27, 2014
Parshat: Shoftim
Yalkut Yosef: 318


If before Shabbat one poured hot water (from a kli rishon) over a raw egg causing it to become soft boiled, he may pour hot water over it again on Shabbat in order to warm it up. Even if the egg will become hard boiled it is still permissible because of the principle of "en bishul ahar bishul." Likewise, he may also put the egg into a pot of hot water that is no longer on the fire. However, if the egg is raw one may not put it into hot water even in a kli sheni.
