Hard Boiled Eggs

Ingredients

  • Several week old eggs – eggs that are older are easier to peel once cooked.
  • Cold water

Directions

  1. Add eggs to a deep pan with at least 1-2″ of cold water to cover.
  2. Turn up heat to high, and bring eggs to a rolling boil.
  3. Once eggs are at a high rolling boil, turn off the burner and cover the pan. Let sit for 12-15 minutes.
  4. Immediately remove eggs with a slotted spoon into an ice bath. The ice bath shocks the membrane that separates the egg from the shell, and will gradually relax it away from the egg itself.
