How to Cook Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs

Ingredients

•  12 Eggs, room temperature

Instructions

1. Set your eggs in a layer in the bottom of a saucepan.
2. Cover with water, 1″ over the eggs.
3. Cook over medium-high heat until boiling, do not over boil
4. Remove from burner and cover, letting eggs stand for 15 minutes (12 minutes for medium eggs, 18 minutes for extra large).
5. Run cold water over the eggs to cool them

Notes

Cook 1 dozen eggs or less at one time for more even cooking.

To make sure that the eggs are easy to peel, buy your eggs 1-2 weeks ahead of time (fresh eggs are harder to peel)
