Something as simple as hard boiled eggs can go horribly wrong. I can stand that ring that comes around the yolk of an overcooked egg! However with a few simple steps you can get perfect eggs every time.
1 - Start with fresh eggs - old eggs will be harder to peel in the end
2 - Place eggs in a pot - you don't want them to have much wiggle room so choose a pot that is the right size for however many eggs you are cooking.
3 - Cover the eggs with cold water
4 - Put the pot over high heat - let water come to a full boil
5 - Turn off the heat and place a cover on the pan and let sit for 15 minutes
6 - Place the pot in the sink and run cold water over eggs until all the water in the pot is cold
7 - Let the eggs sit in the cold water for 15 minutes
8 - Crack shells and peel - run under cold water if needed.
