<upd_detl>ngram count of 807 is quite low in any case. Considered [rare], used [food] instead.
	  
"half-baked" can mean undercooked English.  I don't believe "half-boiled" carries the same nuance. If anything, seems like a legitimate form of egg preparation.  sankoku and daijs both use 不十分, "not enough", "insufficient". 

"undercooked" in most cases seems like a useful gloss, except that "boiling" is the method of cooking. "underboiled", like "half-boiled", doesn't really mean anything to me in English though.

I can't figure out if 生茹で麺 is a particular product or not(where "half-boiled noodles" might apply).  Even so, I find English examples like the one below, which still use "undercooked":

Can I cook pasta ahead of time then reheat it?
If you want to pre-cook the pasta, and then reheat later, you can do this by cooking it as usual, but leave it slightly undercooked.</upd_detl>
