Instructions
Step 1
Method 1: Place eggs in cold water and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, then remove the pan from heat. Set a timer for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove the eggs and rinse them under cold water.
Step 2
Method 2 (Alternate): Place eggs in a single layer in the bottom of a pot, then cover them with cold water to approximately one inch over the eggs. Turn heat on to High, and set a timer for 18 minutes.
Step 3
Immediately when the timer goes off, remove the pot from heat and drain the water. Shake the pot around a bit to crack the eggs, then cover the eggs with ice and cold water. Let them sit for several minutes in the ice water before peeling. This method is noted for super-easy peeling and guaranteed no green yolks.
