HOW TO BOIL EGGS PERFECTLY (EASY PEEL!)

Steps:

• Place eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a large saucepan or pot. Add enough water to cover the eggs with at least 1 in (2.5 cm) of water over them.
• Add a tablespoon (15 mL) of vinegar and a tablespoon (14 g) of sea salt to the pot. Stir gently.
• Place the pan onto the stove over high heat. Bring the water to a rolling boil.
• Once the water is boiling, set a timer to the following number of minutes based on how you want your eggs.1 minute - Very runny soft boiled eggs2 minutes - Runny soft boiled eggs3 minutes - Very gooey medium boiled eggs4 minutes - Gooey medium boiled eggs5 minutes - Just set medium boiled eggs6 minutes - Medium-hard boiled eggs7 minutes - Very creamy hard boiled eggs8 minutes - Creamy hard boiled eggs9 minutes - Firm hard boiled eggs10 minutes - Very firm hard boiled eggs
• Right before the timer is about to go off, turn on the faucet to the coldest that it goes and let it run until the water is ice cold. Once the timer goes off, drain the hot water and place the pan under the cold running water, letting the ice cold water fill the pan. The water will turn lukewarm from the heat of the eggs and pan. Keep running the water (it will overflow from the pot), until the water in the pan is ice cold. Leave the eggs in the pot for about 10 minutes, until they reach room temperature.
• Once the eggs are at room temperature (but not colder), you can peel them.
• To peel an egg, roll it on the counter with the palm of your hand, pressing gently to make cracks all over the shell. The peel will come right off!
• If not using right away, see notes in the post above about how to store hard boiled eggs and when to peel them.

EASY BOILED EGGS: HOW LONG TO BOIL AN EGG? SOFT, MEDIUM & HARD BOILED

Steps:

• Take a saucepan and half fill it with cold water from the tap. Gently lower the eggs into the saucepan.
• Place the pan over a medium heat. When the water reaches a simmer, start the timer so you can precisely time the cooking process. If you gently stir the eggs in a clockwise direction, the movement of the water will help centre the yolks.
• Simmer the eggs in the saucepan for the length of time that suits your boiled eggs preference.

• Use a large spoon to remove the eggs from the water.
• Cool the eggs by running them under cold tap water for 30-60 seconds or placing them in a bowl of iced water.

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT HARD BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place eggs into a saucepan and pour in cold water to cover; place over high heat. When the water just starts to simmer, turn off heat, cover pan with a lid, and let stand for 17 minutes. Don't peek.
• Pour out the hot water and pour cold water over eggs. Drain and refill with cold water; let stand until eggs are cool, about 20 minutes. Peel eggs under running water.

PERFECT HARD-BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Fill a large pot halfway with water, making sure the pot is large enough to contain eggs in a single layer. Bring to a boil over high heat.
• Place eggs in boiling water individually using a large spoon, making sure not to break them. Continue to boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 25 minutes.
• Place eggs under cold water until eggs have cooled.

THE PERFECT BOILED EGGS

Steps:

• Put the eggs in a large pot with a lid. Pour cool water over the eggs until fully submerged and add the baking soda to the water. Put the pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once the water is at a rolling boil, turn off the heat and cover the pot with the lid. Allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for the following times according to the desired doneness: 3 minutes for SOFT boiled; 6 minutes for MEDIUM boiled; 12 minutes for HARD boiled.
• Prepare a bowl of ice water. Transfer the cooked eggs to the ice water to cool completely before peeling.
