My favorite way to make hard boiled eggs! This Easy Hard Boiled Eggs recipe is quick, easy, and as close to perfection as you can get!
Here is the recipe:
- Eggs (However many you want to make)
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
Take out a sauce pan big enough for however many eggs you’re using so that your eggs will be in a single layer and not on top of each other. Add in cold water to your sauce pan so that it’s 1 inch above your eggs. Put your sauce pan on the stove top and turn your burner on Medium Heat for 3:00. After 3:00 turn your burner on High Heat until they start to boil. Once boiling keep them on the heat for 1:00. Take your eggs off the heat, turn your burner off, and cover your sauce pan. Keep covered for 10:00. After 10:00 take out a bowl/container and fill it with cold water + ice, get a slotted spoon, and then transfer your eggs from the sauce pan to the bowl/container. Let them cool off for 15:00-20:00. Enjoy!
I’m trying this recipe out next week for sure!
I make hard boiled eggs every week but they never peel well for me. Thank you. I love the website.
Thanks Becky! 🙂
Becky, I used to struggle with the peeling too and I found the solution. Fresh eggs don’t peel well, the shells stick to the membrane. 1 week old eggs, in the fridge, peel much better. So plan ahead and buy a new dozen or so when you cook the first batch. That way they will sit in your fridge for a week or week and half. Eggs stay fresh in the fridge for a few weeks so it’s OK. Derek’s cooking method is spot on!
You got it Chris! Thanks for the comment man
