I've been cooking hard boiled eggs like this for years. It really works. A TV chef recently suggested draining the water and shaking the boiled eggs in the pot in order to crack the shells, then submerge them in cold water to cool........makes for easier peeling.

Place eggs in pot and cover with water.

These were pretty good, but I think I accidentally let them boil too long before I turned the heat off. So, they turned out a little stiffer and drier than I would have liked. Since it was my mistake, I have chosen not to give a star rating until I do it right. As for the easiness of the recipe, I'd have to give five stars. Cooking was a breeze, and peeling was too. And I must say, I was surprised at just how easy all of it was. I will definitely try this again. Thank you!

I won't make hard boiled eggs any other way. They come out perfect every time. You don't have to stand by the stove an watch so the eggs don;t boil over. Fantastic! I keep mine in the water for only 10 minutes.

Great way to cook eggs. I followed the recipe as written other then I cooked 18 eggs at a time. They came out perfect. I did add salt to the water as my mommy always told me the eggs peel easier that way.
