Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a saucepan.

    Fill the saucepan with water, ensuring that the eggs are covered by at least an inch of water.

  3. 3

    Boil the Water

    Add salt to the water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

    Once boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 9-12 minutes, depending on your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    While the eggs are cooking, fill a large bowl with ice and water to create an ice bath.

    After the desired time, carefully transfer the eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes.

    Peel and Serve
