How to Make Perfectly Boiled Eggs

Ingredients

  • 8-10 large eggs
  • Ice

Instructions

  • 1Prepare your station:
  • Fill a medium/large stockpot with water and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Add 2 cups of ice cubes to a deep bowl, and fill it halfway with cold water. Keep it near the pot to make the transfer smoother.
  • Use a spoon to carefully add the eggs into the boiling water.

2. Allow to Boil:

  • 4 minutes for soft
  • 6 minutes for jammy
  • 8 minutes for medium
  • 10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs

3. Remove From Water

  • Once the eggs are done to your liking, use a slotted spoon to remove from boiling water gently into the ice bath. Allow to completely cool, for 5 minutes in the ice bath

4. Chill and Peel

  • A soon as the eggs are chilled, peel them. Serve and enjoy!

NOTES:

  • different-sized eggs will affect the texture of the yolk.
  • Run the egg underwater while peeling to easily remove the shell.
  • Store hard-boiled eggs (peeled or unpeeled) in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  • Enjoy!
