Ingredients

  • 12 Eggs (choose desired number of eggs not to exceed pot size)
  • Water for boiling the eggs

Instructions

  • Place eggs in a large pan and fill with cool water. NOTE: if eggs have been at room temperature make the water warmer.
  • Place on the stove top and bring to a boil.
  • Once the water in the pan has begun to boil, turn off heat. Let sit for 15 minutes.
  • Place pan under cool running water (don’t dump out water the eggs cooked in) over the sink allowing the water to become fully cool in the pan gradually. This will cool the eggs slowly preventing cracking, but also makes them easier to peel.
