soft-boiled
Soft-boiled generally refers to a method of cooking especially used for eggs where they are boiled gently until the white part is solidified while the yolk remains somewhat liquid or semi-liquid. The boiling process is usually less than that of hard-boiled, typically for about four to five minutes. The term can also be used metaphorically to describe something as being gentle, mild, or easy.
