Default Re: Hard boiled eggs.. help!

There was an entire egg thread only a week or so ago. Here's what I remember---

Fresh eggs stick more than eggs that have been in the fridge a few days so use older ones for boiling. Peel them under running water for easiest peeling.

To boil perfect eggs, put them in the pan in cold water. If you stick a pin through the end they won't crack open on you in the pan. Bring the pan to a boil, covered.

When they reach a rolling solid boil, turn off the heat, cover and let sit until they cool to room temp or only slightly warm. Perfect eggs every time. Tender yolks, none of the gray-green around the outside of the yolk.
