Perfect Peel Hard Boiled Eggs

How to cook easy to peel hard boiled eggs

Every time I cook hard boiled eggs I always would seem to have the most difficult time peeling them after they had cooled off. That was until I found this recipe. By placing the eggs in boiling water to start does increase your chance of getting a few eggs that will crack but I would much prefer taking that chance then spending 30 minutes trying to peel a dozen eggs. 

1) First bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil on high heat. 

2) Next slowly place eggs in pot with a slotted spoon. 

3) Boil eggs for about 10-15 minutes.

4) Using the slotted spoon, immediately transfer eggs to a bowl filled with ice water for about 20 min.  

Voilà, easy to peel eggs. Sometimes when adding the eggs to the boiling water you will get some that will crack. I cooked a dozen eggs and only 2 cracked open. This eggs shown above was an egg that had cracked open, which is why it looks a little funny, but I wanted to see how the eggs turned out. They turned out great and peeled with ease.
