Hard Boiled Eggs

I love hard boiled eggs in a classic salad but peeling them can be a bit of a nightmare. That is until I found this method of hard boiling that means the shells come off in an instant.

Steps

13 minutes

1

Bring enough water to cover the eggs in a pot to a rolling boil.
2

Prick the eggs at the bottom to allow air to escape.
3

Gently lower each egg (using a spoon) into the boiling water - being careful not to splash yourself.
4

Once all the eggs are in, leave them boiling for 30 seconds.
5

Lower the temperature to simmer and leave them in the water for 12-13 minutes.
6

Carefully remove the eggs from the boiling water and place them immediately into ice water to stop them from cooking further. Leave them for 15 minutes to cool.
7

Once the eggs are cooled, tap the eggs on a hard surface at each end and then roll them on the surface on the sides. This will loosen the shell from the egg.
