Hard Boiled Eggs



Tip: Read directions completely before preparing.

Place eggs in a saucepan with enough cold tap water to cover completely by 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.

Once the water is brought to a rolling boil, promptly reduce heat to a lower medium boil and cook for 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and immediately place eggs under ice cold water or in a bowl of water to chill promptly to help yolks stay bright yellow. Chill for a few minutes in the cold water until the egg is completely cooled. If the egg is not chilled immediately after cooking an unsightly dark greenish ring will eventually appear on the outside of the yolk.

To peel, crack egg on all sides, roll egg between hands to loosen shell and remove shell.  Enjoy!
