Number Of Ingredients 4

1 tablespoon salt
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
6 cups water
8 eggs

Steps:

  • Combine the salt, vinegar, and water in a large pot, and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the eggs one at a time, being careful not to crack them. Reduce the heat to a gentle boil, and cook for 14 minutes. Once the eggs have cooked, remove them from the hot water, and place into a container of ice water or cold, running water. Cool completely, about 15 minutes. Store in the refrigerator up to 1 week. Note: Ken suggests allowing the eggs to come to room temperature before putting into the water. This helps prevent cracking.
