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.

Pregnancy- Third Trimester

By this time I was starting to have a definite baby bump and my symptoms were starting to get a little more noticeable. I was feeling the back aches and the heartburn but I was also feeling the good ones too like the stronger movements of her kicks. My heartburn had started to get so bad that I had to keep a stash of tums with me at all times. I was eating them like they were candy. To help with my back aches I used a heating pad during the day and at night I slept with a body pillow . I really liked the U shape of this body pillow and it was also very soft and fluffy but was still very supportive for my hips and back. Around this time I was clearly showing enough that customers at work felt comfortable about assuming I was pregnant. The biggest question people had for me was if my husband and I had picked out a name yet. My husband and I are somewhat of procrastinators. We had been looking at names but we didn't really find anything that we both liked. It w...

Pregnancy- Second Trimester

At this point in my pregnancy both my husband and I had told our families that we were expecting but we had not yet told our coworkers the news. I was still not showing in the beginning of my second trimester and luckily I didn't have any pregnancy symptoms like nausea so it was easy for me to be able to keep it a secret at work. I wasn't quite sure how I wanted to announce my pregnancy at work yet until in an early morning huddle another one of my coworkers made an announcement that she was expecting in early August. I was so excited to hear about her news but in the back of my mind all I could think about was now we were going to have two people on maternity leave for potentially 12 weeks. I asked when her due date was and to my surprise it was only 2 week after mine. I looked at her and then looked at my manager with a surprised look. Another one of my coworkers jokingly asked if there was something I wanted to add. That is when I announced that I was also due in July....
