This may seem simple to most, but as an amateur chef I know I sometimes need help with basic cooking techniques! So here's a simple way to hard boil your eggs!

4 eggs (change servings and units)

Ingredients

4 eggs
water

Directions

1
Place eggs in stainless steel pot, do not stack.
2
Cover with cold water to where eggs are just immersed.
3
Cook to boiling, immediately remove and cover with lid; let stand 20 minutes.
4
Voila, the perfect boiled egg.
5
Note: You can do this with however many eggs you need; I only chose 4 because they required me to give a serving size!

I cooked 14 eggs using this method. Fantastic...Egg yolks just perfect for devilled eggs. After cooking I plunged the eggs into water with lots of ice cubes and shook the pot to crack the shells. Let set for a few minutes and voila!!! Easy to peel hard boiled eggs! Thanks so much for posting your way of doing it....

I have always had a hard time boiling eggs.. the yolk sometimes wouldn't be completely cooked for me. But this how-to recipe worked perfectly. Thank you!

This is the only fool-proof way to hard cook eggs. Be sure to plunge in cold water after the 20 minutes is up to stop the cooking process. If you start peeling at the small end, you can 'almost' peel them perfectly.

Simple task, perfect results. I just boiled 4 jumbo eggs following these directions and they turned out perfect. Bright yellow yolks completely done and easy to peel.
