Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs (Technique) image

No fail! Never undercook or overcook your eggs again. I came across this method in my search to avoid the ugly green cast that yolks take on when overcooked. Add on a couple minutes to soak time if you use Jumbo eggs.

Time 2m

Yield 12 eggs

Number Of Ingredients 2

12 large eggs
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Put eggs in large pot.
  • Cover with water so that there is at least an inch of water above the eggs.
  • Add a pinch of salt.
  • Turn on heat (med high) and heat, uncovered, to a boil.
  • If you have more than a single layer of eggs, you may want to stir them occasionally (gently!) while they heat.
  • Once the water comes to a boil, watch your clock and let it boil for 2 minutes.
  • Remove pot from the heat and cover with lid.
  • Let sit, covered, for 11 minutes.
  • Drain and cool eggs for 2 minutes in ice water.
