Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- water
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Place week-old eggs in a high-sided pan and cover with cold water by 1 to 2 inches. Use a large enough pan so eggs are not crowded.
- Bring water to a rolling boil, not just lightly bubbling.
- After water is really boiling, cover the pan, turn off the heat, place pan on an alternate burner, and wait 10 to 12 minutes. While waiting, prepare an ice bath (large bowl, water, ice cubes).
- Place the eggs into ice bath and wait about 5 to 10 minutes before peeling. Rap the wider or base end of each egg against the bottom of your sink, and peel under cold running water.
Notes
- I store my hard boiled eggs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
