What is the Best Way to Hard Boil an Egg?

Hard boiled eggs are simple to make, and don’t take much time at all. To boil the perfect eggs every time, make sure to add just enough water in the pot to cover them. The longer you cook the eggs, the more solid the yolk will be, so boil them according to your preferences. Take the hard-boiled eggs out of the water immediately after they’re done boiling and run them under cold water or transfer to an ice bath. Peel eggs and let the eggs sit until you’re ready to cook.
