Steps:
- Place the number of eggs you want to cook in the bottom of a medium to large pot in a single layer and cover them with an inch of cold water. Set the pot on the stove and turn the heat to high.
- Bring the water to a full, rolling boil, then cover the pot with a lid, turn off the heat, and set the timer for 12 minutes.
- As soon as the timer goes off, take the lid off the eggs and set them in the sink under the tap. Drain the hot water and run cold water over the eggs to cool them quickly and stop the cooking process.
- After a minute or two under cold water, you can drain the water and store the cooked hard-boiled eggs in a covered container in the fridge for 5 days.

THE PERFECT BOILED EGGS
Steps:
- Put the eggs in a large pot with a lid. Pour cool water over the eggs until fully submerged and add the baking soda to the water. Put the pot over high heat and bring to a boil.

Allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for the following times according to the desired doneness: 3 minutes for SOFT boiled; 6 minutes for MEDIUM boiled; 12 minutes for HARD boiled.
- Prepare a bowl of ice water. Transfer the cooked eggs to the ice water to cool completely before peeling.
PERFECT HARD BOILED EGGS (TECHNIQUE)
No fail! Never undercook or overcook your eggs again. I came across this method in my search to avoid the ugly green cast that yolks take on when overcooked. Add on a couple minutes to soak time if you use Jumbo eggs.

Steps:
- Place eggs in a single layer in a heavy saucepan and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch. Add 1 teaspoon salt (Salting the water helps minimize leaks if the eggs crack in the pan; the egg whites coagulate and seal off the crack more quickly). Turn the heat to high. As soon as the water comes to a gentle boil, turn off the heat and cover the pan.
- For creamy yolks, remove the lid after 10 minutes and run cold water over eggs for 1 minute. Set aside to cool at room temperature. For firmer yolks, leave the eggs to cool in the cooking water, uncovered, for up to 2 hours. To test if an egg has been cooked, spin it on a counter. A hard boiled egg spins faster than a raw egg.
- To peel, gently tap a boiled egg against the counter, turning and tapping to make a crackle pattern. Start peeling at the broad end, where there is an air pocket. Running the egg under cold water is not necessary, unless they are too hot to handle.
KEN'S PERFECT HARD BOILED EGG (AND I MEAN PERFECT)
Couldn't sleep one night so I researched several ways to hard boil eggs and developed this process. While you do not taste the vinegar or salt, they both pull the skin from the eggshell so it peels easily without tearing or sticking. Family members call them 'Ken's Eggs'. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place eggs in a pot. Cover with cold water until the eggs are covered by about 1 inch (2 cm) of water.
- Bring to a boil, uncovered. Once boiling, take off the heat.
- Cover and cook for 4-16 minutes, depending on preference (4-6 minutes for soft-boiled, 8-10 minutes for medium-boiled, 12-16 minutes for hard-boiled). In the meantime, fill a large bowl with ice and cold water, creating an ice bath.
- Once eggs reach desired cook-time, immediately remove the eggs from pot and place in the ice bath. Allow eggs to cool for 10-15 minutes.
- To peel, lightly tap the eggs on a flat surface, then gently roll back and forth (taking extra care with soft-boiled eggs).
- Pull away the loosened shell and peel any remaining pieces.
- Serve as is or incorporate into your favorite recipe that requires hard-boiled eggs.
- Enjoy!

THE MOST PERFECT HARD-BOILED EGGS (NO NEEDLES INVOLVED)
From David Tanis' A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes. Let me just say that as a college student one of the edible discoveries that left me the most jubilant was that of hard-boiled eggs. Simple, convenient, nutritious, versatile, inexpensive, cute, and even aesthetically pleasing in a niçoise salad - what more could I ask for? So it was a good day when I came across a recipe that actually showed me HOW to boil the perfect egg. I tried it and...I've been hooked ever since. I boil eggs every 3 days (3 at a time), and they have become a staple in my hectic student life.

Steps:
- About 30 minutes before you wish to eat your eggs, place the eggs in the warm water bath. Leave them in there for about 30 minutes or so, or until the eggs are room temperature or a bit warmer. (This step is critical so that the eggs don't crack when you submerge them in the boiling water).
- Now, fill a medium bowl with cold water and add a handful of ice cubes (alternatively, you can place cold water in a bowl and put it in the fridge or even freezer - it'll only be in there for 10 minutes, anyway.).
- Bring a medium pan of water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Lower the eggs into the water -- I use my handy wire egg sieve for this maneuver -- and simmer for exactly 8 minutes (7 and a half for golden yellow yolkeyness, and 9 if you don't want a soft center in your yolk).
- When the timer goes off, lift the eggs out of the water with a slotted spoon (again, I use my wire egg sieve) and put them in the bowl of ice water; this will halt the cooking.
- When the eggs are cold -- this will take just a couple of minutes -- tap them gently on the counter to crack their shell all around, and return to the bowl a few more minutes: the water will infiltrate the eggs beneath the shell and make them easier to peel. (Also, when peeling the eggs, notice that there is a thin skin between the white and the shell; once found and ruptured, that skin provides good leverage to peel off the shell.).
- Keep the eggs in the fridge and eat within a day or two.

- Use the right eggs. It is best to use eggs that are just past peak freshness, though not expired or bad. The outer membrane in a fresh egg tends to cling to the shell more than in an older egg, making the peeling process more difficult.
- Place the eggs in a pot. Place the eggs in a pot, cover completely with cold water, and put the pot on the stove. Add in a small splash of white vinegar, if desired.
- Bring the cold water to a boil over high heat. After your eggs, water and a tiny splash if vinegar are in your pot, bring the cold water to a boil over high heat, leaving the pot uncovered.
- Give the eggs an ice bath. When the timer goes off, remove the eggs from the hot water and place them in a large bowl of ice-cold water to halt the cooking process and lower the temperature of the eggs.
- Peel the eggs. Roll the egg under your palm on the counter so that the shell is broken and cracked all over, and then submerge the egg in your bowl of room-temperature water.
