Like hard boiled eggs? Heres an easy, fool proof method. Perfect eggs every time and no broken shells...................PLACE all the eggs in a pot of COLD water. Careful not to drop them. (This is one of the major causes of broken egg shells when dropping eggs in HOT water. I guess you could use a ladle to lower the eggs in, but, aint nobody got time for that) Put on high heat, uncovered. When the water is at a rolling boil, shut the heat off and cover the pot with a lid. Set a timer to 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, put the pot in the sink and dump as much of the hot water out that you can. Then run cold water into it until the eggs are cool (this stops the cooking). Or, fill with ice. But Id rather save the ice for cocktails. When it comes to peeling them, especially if youre peeling all of them at once, heres another easy trick. Put the eggs in a colander. Then, under cold running water, bounce and shake the eggs. The shells will break up and the water pressure will help to peel the shells apart. Once theyre good and broken, pick each egg up and finish peeling them under the cold running water. The shells stay in the colander making easy clean-up.
