Ingredients
Method
- Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Cover, turn off heat, and let sit for 10 minutes (or desired time).
- Transfer eggs to an ice bath and chill at least 5 minutes. Peel under cool running water.
Notes
The cook time listed is for a creamy hard-boiled yolk. If you prefer a firmer yolk, rest the eggs for 12 minutes. The ice bath is essential. Don’t skip it, or the eggs will continue cooking and may be hard to peel.
