This may seem simple to most, but as an amateur chef I know I sometimes need help with basic cooking techniques! So here's a simple way to hard boil your eggs!
Directions:
1
Place eggs in stainless steel pot, do not stack.
2
Cover with cold water to where eggs are just immersed.
3
Cook to boiling, immediately remove and cover with lid; let stand 20 minutes.
4
Voila, the perfect boiled egg.
5
Note: You can do this with however many eggs you need; I only chose 4 because they required me to give a serving size!

Absolutely perfect! I could never remember how long to cook and inevitably overcooked my eggs. This has worked every time. Thanks!
