the perfect boiled egg

P1080943

I know it’s supposed to be one of the easiest things to make, but I’ve had quite a time of it learning to boil eggs. Recently, I found the perfect recipe for my family’s tastes and preferences. This method makes for a nice yolk and an easy peel job. Hope it works as well for you!

Place six eggs in a pot and cover with warm water. Don’t fill the pot.

Bring pot to a boil, for a total time of ten to twelve minutes. Add more time for more eggs.

Place pot under running cold water, allowing it overflow and replace hot water.

Add ice, and give it about ten minutes or until the ice melts and the water is cool.

Peel and store in airtight container in refrigerator. Enjoy all week long!
