THE EASIEST PERFECT HARD BOILED EGGS (TECHNIQUE)



The Easiest Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs (Technique) image

There are many ways that work well to boil eggs such as adding salt (who needs that extra salt?), using a needle to poke a hole in the eggs (way too tedious and unnecessary), adding ice or vinegar for easy peeling, etc., etc., etc. Unfortunately, those methods are all too time consuming for most people. I've been using this technique since I was a teenager (so long ago). This technique is perfect and the absolute simplest above all the others. Oh, and no utensils needed either, how cool is that!?! :) A similar method for pasta is Recipe #30358

Time 21m

Yield 6 eggs

Number Of Ingredients 2

6 large eggs
water

Steps:

  • Place eggs in medium saucepan. Cover with water 1" above the eggs. Place on stovetop over high heat.
  • Bring to a boil. Immediately remove from heat and cover. Let sit 18-20 minutes.
  • Pour cold tap water into pot allowing the hot water out by holding the pot on a slant. Let eggs sit in cold water for 1-2 minutes, then peel easily.
  • NOTE: (no garbage disposal/shells for gardening method) I peel the eggs under running cold water with a colander underneath to catch the shells. I placed the eggs onto paper towels to rid excess moisture for egg salad, OR place peeled eggs into a bowl of cold water, cover and refrigerate where they keep for about 4-5 days.

A PERFECT HARD-BOILED EGG



A Perfect Hard-Boiled Egg image

Master this simple technique and every hard-boiled egg you make from here on out will have a perfectly-cooked, creamy sunshine center. Here are loads of recipes to make with them.

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     breakfast, brunch, easy, lunch, quick, snack, finger foods, main course, side dish

Time 20m

Yield Varies

Number Of Ingredients 2

Eggs
1 teaspoon salt

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.
