A hot start will give your eggs an easier peel, and the eggs will still cook beautifully and evenly.

Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil, and then gently lower the eggs in the water.Use a wire basket or something to keep eggs from breaking.

Once the eggs are in, lower the heat so that the water is at a gentle simmer.You don’t want a full rolling boil, but just a gentle amount of bubbles.

Cook for 13 minutes.

When the eggs are finished cooking, drop the eggs into an ice bath for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, the eggs will be cool to the touch.

Give them several taps against the countertop all over.

Then peel any egg shells.After peeling, store eggs in the fridge for up to 5 days.
