Ingredients:

  • 6 large eggs
  • Water
  • Ice
  • Salt (optional)

Step 1: Choose Your Eggs Wisely

Start with fresh and high-quality eggs. Older eggs tend to peel more easily, so if you can, use eggs that have been in your refrigerator for a week or two. However, if you don’t have time to wait, don’t worry – you can still achieve great results with relatively fresh eggs.

Step 2: Prepare Your Cooking Water

Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan or pot. Add enough water to cover the eggs completely, with about an inch of water above them. You can also add a pinch of salt to the water to help prevent cracking.

Step 3: Bring the Water to a Boil

Set the saucepan on the stove over medium-high heat. Allow the water to come to a rolling boil. This may take about 10-12 minutes, depending on your stove.

Step 4: Cook the Eggs

Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for about 9-12 minutes, depending on the size of the eggs and how well-done you prefer the yolk. For a creamy yolk, cook for around 9 minutes, while a firmer yolk will take closer to 12 minutes.

Step 5: Cool the Eggs

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked eggs to a bowl filled with ice water. Let them sit for at least 5 minutes to cool and stop the cooking process. This will also make it easier to peel the eggs later on.

Step 6: Peel and Enjoy!

Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell, then roll it between your hands to loosen the shell. Begin peeling from the wider end of the egg and remove the entire shell. Rinse the peeled egg under cool water to remove any small shell fragments, if necessary. Your perfect hard-boiled eggs are now ready to be enjoyed in salads, as a snack, or in any dish of your choice!

Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to prepare the perfect hard-boiled egg. No more greenish yolks or rubbery textures – just delicious hard-boiled eggs every time. Enjoy!
