How to Make Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs

published by bearhugs on Jun 1, 2009

No more guessing if the eggs are done! This is how to boil those eggs perfectly.

I have made these hard boiled eggs more than 20 times. It’s from trial and error that I discovered 15 minutes boiling cooks it perfectly. And make sure to use cold water to avoid cracks.

Here’s how easy it is to make perfect hard boiled eggs:

  1. Put the eggs in a pot and cover them with cold tap water
  2. Bring to a boil
  3. When water is boiling, reduce heat to medium and set the timer for 15 minutes. Keep the lid half-closed while boiling.
  4. After 15 minutes it’s done!

Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the tip. I usually get stuck bringing the devilled eggs to family BBQs and this might help me out. I’ll give it a try. Any tricks for easy peeling of the shells?
