STEAMED, NOT BOILED, EGGS
I used to dread the process of boiling eggs; it was always hard to peel them, sometimes worse than others. Then one day I read about steaming eggs in shells. The steaming method works every time--the eggs are perfectly cooked and easy to peel. If you try this method, you will never boil an egg again!!

Steps:
- 1. Put eggs (with shells) to cook in a bowl of hot water.
- 2. Choose a pot that will hold your steamer basket and one with a tight-fitting lid. Add a steamer basket to the pot.
- 3. Add enough water to pot so that it comes to the bottom of the steamer basket. Bring the water to a boil.
- 4. Gently, add the eggs with shells from the bowl to the steaming basket. Cover the pot tightly.
- 5. Turn the heat to low-medium. Steam the eggs for 15 minutes.
- 6. Remove the steamed eggs to a bowl of cold water and ice--enough to cover them. Let set 10 minutes.
- 7. Crack the shells all over and peel. You will be able to peel the eggs easily.
