When I was a kid, my mom would make soft-boiled eggs like this: Put 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar into a bowl. Cut up a slice of toast into cubes, about 1/2 inch and add to bowl. Empty soft-boiled eggs from shells into bowl, salt & pepper, mix it all up. YUM

Ditto. I was given one of those Hot Pot cookers a few Christmases ago, and found that it will hard-boil a dozen eggs perfectly. I set it on low pressure for 3 minutes.

Also a little vinegar added to the water keeps broken eggs mostly in their shell.

Buy a dozen eggs and do an experiment.
I typically put the eggs in boiling water myself, I find the optimum time, not in the article, is 12-15 minutes. I think run cold water for a few minutes and peel. I have heard "older" eggs peel better but have not done any statistically significant experimentation on that.

For the grandkids. When coloring your Easter Eggs, put them in a wire whisk and dunk them.

Hard boiled eggs are tasty in salads, too.

LOL. You are competing for resources with all the millions of hatchlings that drop egg shells in the forest every year! Shame!

Has anyone here ever eaten Turkey eggs?
I haven’t, but would like to get hold of some and experiment. I’ll bet even the eggs will have a Turkey essence of flavor.

Eggs should NEVER be over cooked.

Dropping eggs in boiling water is a great way to rupture the shells and make a mess.
Not hard boiling fresh eggs but let them sit in the refrig a few days works for me.

I like boiled eggs.
Nice and portable.
husband refused to eat them unless they are deviled.
And then..... the carnage... the horror. I swear he can eat all 24 in under two minutes.

I have a cuisinart egg maker....Ok..Ok.. don't laugh, but it's a great little appliance. IN addition to the hard boiled eggs cooked to perfection each time, are egg bites and omelettes. Makes a great gift to yourself or others.

I thought the cold water was so I won’t burn my fingers peeling the egg.

Piercing the least pointed end of the egg will eliminate the greening.
