Perfect hard boiled eggs are not difficult to achieve. This method has produced fool-proof results and the shells are super easy to peel off the eggs as well. Check out the post comments for the success others have had with this recipe.
The perfect hard boiled egg – Simple. And easy, really. But the perfectly peeled, smooth egg that is critical to tasty Deviled Eggs? That’s another story. Let me start with the end and work back. Getting that peel that just sort of “pops off” after that first crack of the shell. That feeling of success when you know you won’t end up with a dozen eggs with a pecked-at look that can’t possibly be used in your grandma’s classic Deviled Egg recipe. Been there done that. And I’ve tried all the suggestions for getting the perfect peel. Add vinegar; add baking soda; roll the egg to crack the shell and then blah, blah, etc., etc. You know them all. These methods almost never worked for me. You either? Well, here is the secret… finally! I’m happy to share a method with you that actually works. You can have perfectly cooked, bright and yellow hard boiled yolks and creamy, tasty egg whites, that peel easily every time.
Here’s the way to get that easy-to-peel-shell:
Place your eggs straight out of the fridge into a pot of already rapidly boiling water, using a spoon to lower the eggs into the water. What?! Yes, I said cold eggs into boiling water. Stay with me. Once you place the eggs in the boiling water, the boil will reduce since the eggs are cold. Keep at high heat until the water boils rapidly again and let boil for 30 seconds, then turn the heat to just a simmer. This requires keeping most burners set at medium since the cold-start eggs will dramatically drop the water temperature (the eggs will just kind of move around like jumping beans in the slow simmering water), and continue in the pot for 12 minutes for hard boiled eggs (to use this method for soft boiled eggs, simmer for only 6 minutes). **Cook’s note: Once in a while, an egg might crack when it’s placed in the boiling water, usually because the shell is a bit thin. To prevent any of the egg from oozing out of the shell, add about 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar to the water before heating to boil. When I do this, the cracked egg cooks perfectly just like all the others in the pot.**
Starting in the boiling water will help the shell separate from the eggs sooner, but you must turn the heat down to the simmer if you want your egg whites to be tender and not rubbery.This may require you to adjust the dial up or down a bit in the first few minutes until you’re sure the simmer will continue. After the eggs have slow-simmered for 12 minutes…
Quickly run ice cold water over your eggs while draining out the hot water. Do this until only cold water is left in the pot. This will stop the eggs from cooking further. Let the eggs sit in the cold water for 15 minutes to cool (you can add a few ice cubes to make them cold if using immediately), or refrigerate overnight. Peel under cool running water. Whether you peel them right out of the pan or the next day doesn’t matter. Either way, they peel easily.
The picture above says it all. The egg on the left was cooked using the method I just described. The egg on the right was cooked from the typical cold water start. The egg shell on the left just slipped right off. I never was able to get the egg on the right peeled without pulling the egg in half and ruining it for Deviled Eggs.
What are the best uses for hard boiled eggs?
Hard boiled eggs are at the heart of several recipes, such as egg salad sandwiches, potato salads, deviled eggs, and just the perfect snack or lunch that is easily packed to go. And of course the most important use of all, Easter Eggs.
One important note: Super-fresh eggs are hard to peel no matter what method you try. If, like me you have a few backyard chickens, as seems to be a rapidly growing trend, you’ll want to save your eggs for at least two weeks before cooking. However, store-bought eggs do sit around for a while before they make it from farm to grocer so they’re already not extremely fresh when you purchase them. But it doesn’t hurt to think ahead and buy your eggs at least a week or two ahead of deviled-egg-making-time. **Update: As an experiment, I just tried this method on a fresh egg from one of my chickens. Though it was a bit harder to remove the shell then my other eggs, I was still able to do so without damaging the egg white.**
There you go, this method consistently creates silky, just-right hard boiled eggs with easy-to-remove shells.
Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs and The Secret to Easily Peeled Shells
Ingredients
- 6 eggs, large eggs, chilled (right out of the refrigerator)
- 2 quarts rapidly boiling water, or enough to cover the eggs well
- ½ tsp white vinegar optional (see notes below)
Instructions
- Before beginning, please read the recipe notes for important tips and information.
- Place 6 eggs straight out of the fridge into a pot of 2 quarts just rapidly boiling water, using a spoon to lower the eggs into the water. See note below regarding eggs that crack. Once you place the eggs in the boiling water, the boil will reduce since the eggs are cold. Keep at high heat until the water boils rapidly again and let boil for 30 seconds, then turn the heat to just a simmer. This requires keeping most burners set at medium since the cold-start eggs will dramatically drop the water temperature (the eggs will just kind of move around like jumping beans in the slow simmering water).
- Continue simmering in the pot for 12 minutes for hard boiled eggs (for soft boiled eggs, simmer for 7 minutes).
- After the eggs have simmered for 12 minutes, quickly run ice cold water over your eggs while draining out the hot water. Do this until only cold water is left in the pot. This will stop the eggs from cooking any further. Let the eggs sit in the cold water for 15 minutes to cool (you can add a few ice cubes to make them cold if you can't wait), or refrigerate overnight. Tap on the edge of the saucepan or counter and then peel under cool running water. Whether you peel them right out of the pan or place eggs in the fridge and then peel the next day doesn’t matter. Either way, they peel easily.
Notes
- Hard boiling large quantities- The quantity of eggs for this method doesn't really matter as long as you use a pan large enough for all the eggs to fit in one layer and you don't want them too crowded. The water needs to be enough to fully cover the eggs while they're boiling and simmering. I add enough to cover the eggs by about an inch. I've used this method with 12 eggs at one time with success.
- Help! My eggs cracked when they hit the water! Once in a while, an egg might crack when it’s placed in the boiling water. This usually happens if your egg has a thinner or delicate shell. To prevent egg from oozing out of the shell, add about 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar to the water before heating to boil. When I do this, the cracked egg cooks perfectly just like all the others in the pot.
- How hard to boil the water during cooking-Placing the egg directly into boiling water will help the shell separate from the eggs sooner, but you must turn the heat down to the simmer if you want your egg whites to be tender and not rubbery.This may require you to adjust the dial up or down a bit in the first few minutes until you’re sure the simmer will continue.
Used your method. Still have pieces of egg white coming off with shell.
Hi Eric, I’m sorry to hear that. Did you add the little bit of vinegar? Also, maybe your cold eggs were too cold? Next time, place each egg on a spoon before putting into the water and run under hot tap water just for a couple of seconds. And remember, you want the water just softly boiling before adding the eggs, not a hard boil. I hope you’ll give this method another try.
Finally found one that really works! Thank you so much. My deviled eggs are famous in my family, but getting those shells off frustrated me nearly every time. This way really worked for me!
Thanks so much, Rosalie! I’m so happy you found my post in time. I’m intrigued about your famous deviled eggs. 🙂
Hi just wanted to say thank you thank you so very much
I have very bad arthritis in my hands! My husband loves egg salad sandwiches but they were always terrible peeling them
But now I have no problem at all this is the 4time I made your recipe they are absolutely the very best egg salad we ever had I thank you very kindly for sharing your recipe
Doreen, this may be the most special comment I’ve received all year. I’m so happy this method for peeling hard boiled eggs has helped you so that you and your husband can enjoy egg salad again! Thanks for taking the time to let me know. All the best to you both!
OMG! My go to method was to always use old eggs, but in this case I forgot to buy eggs and put them aside so I had to use fresh eggs. I used this method and it worked like a charm. I will be saving this page because I will never hard boil eggs any other way again! Thank you!
Donna! 😀 Your comment made my day, I’m so glad you found this post.
its been a while since ive hard boiled eggs, probably 5+ years, i used to be pretty good at it but id completely forgotten everything.
your instructions made them come out PERFECT. nice and tender, and a perfectly cooked tender yolk that just melted like butter (but was still fully cooked)
i normally dont leave messages like this, but ive got to say that it was probably the best hard boiled egg ive ever had.
Jay, your comment made my day! I’m so glad you found the post. Thanks for taking the time to comment here. It means a lot!
Outstanding! I, too, have tried a bazillion ways to peel eggs well and until today had been unsuccessful. I even took a push pin once and tried poking holes in either the narrow end or the fat end to let the air bubble out, and that didn’t work too! I just did 2 dozen your way and the result was impeccable! Thanks so much!
Thanks, Paul! This comment made my day. I’m so glad to hear that after your other attempts you found my post. Nothing more frustrating than hard boiled eggs that won’t peel smoothly! Thanks again.
How long are the eggs supposed to simmer?
Hi Catherine,
The recipe states to simmer the eggs for 12 minutes for hard boiled, 6 minutes for soft boiled.
Thank you, thank you for sharing this method. It works so well! I just did three dozen eggs and every one peeled PERFECTLY!
Hi Glenna, I’m so happy that you found my post and that it helped you! Thanks for taking the time to comment. 🙂
I’m going to try this method today for my deviled eggs. One question, though do you put a lid on the eggs after reducing the temperature?
Vickie, I’m so sorry this I’m late in replying. We were out of town for the weekend and I missed it. You do not put a lid on the pot. Again, sorry that I’m too late with this.
I only need one method for boiling eggs and this is the one I use because it actually works. It is saved in my cooking bookmarks folder. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Paul, thanks so much for your great comment and I agree, this method works every time!
Finally, a recipe for boiling eggs that really works!
I boiled a dozen eggs exactly the way you said to do in the recipe and they all came out perfectly.
Thanks so much.
Hi Bob, I’m so glad you found the recipe and that your eggs turned out! Thanks for taking the time to comment, it means a lot. Have a great weekend. 🙂
Thank you so much for this method. I’ve used it several times and it works perfectly. I didn’t simmer well enough once and it was bad. But that was my fault!
Hi Cindy, Thank you for taking the time to comment and I’m so glad the method works well for you. 🙂
You are an angel and a genius!! Thank you for sharing this VERY REAL, VERY LEGITIMATE process. I’m sure I speak for many when I say that figuring out this process can be frustrating. This step by step process worked perfectly. For anyone thinking of looking elsewhere for the proper way to boil eggs, please know that I’ve tried several other method only to be completely disappointed. Just last night (before finding this recipe), I followed the NYT recipe ((with supposed thousands of likes), and which gives the complete opposite advise on boiling eggs. I literally ruined an entire batch of eggs following their recipe….ugh! Then I found this recipe late last night and executed the process early this morning. I AM THRILLED!! Thank you Sally!! If I knew you and saw you right now, I would hug you! <3 Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Stacey! Thank you for the best comment I could receive and I’m so glad you found my post because prepping for Thanksgiving is stressful enough. You made my holiday, Happy Thanksgiving to you, too! 🙂
Ahhhh! I am SO thrilled! It’s the night before Thanksgiving so obviously it’s crunch time and this method does indeed work! My partner and I eat boiled eggs frequently after the gym but they often look hideous because the whites stick to the shell. Like your post, I’ve tried vinegar, water baths, baking soda, etc. and honestly gave up until now… no way I could have my crispy chorizo deviled eggs looking scrappy for Thanksgiving. Thank you for sharing this method with us all! You are a literal lifesaver. Happy Thanksgiving!
Rachel, you just made my Thanksgiving! I’m so glad you found my post because I am with you, tonight is definitely crunch time. Happy Thanksgiving to you, your partner and family.
Thank you so much for posting this perfect way to boil eggs! If I hadn’t tried it myself I originally didn’t believe it. I made 18 eggs for an upcoming party. I did exactly as the recipe and tips called for. (She didn’t mention putting white vinegar in the water in the recipe. She says it only in the tips.) I trippled the white vinegar to 1 1/2 tsp. because she said for 6 eggs she used 1/2 tsp. Every single one of the eggs pealed perfectly! I was done in very little time. I’m sure I’ll be passing this information to my children and anyone else who wants to know! The dread I used to feel making pretty deviled eggs is gone, now that I know this is truly sound information.
Hi Michele, Thanks so much for this great comment! I’m so glad the method worked for you and I agree, making deviled eggs used to be something I dreaded and just stopped doing for a time. Having eggs that peel easily is a game changer! 🙂
OMG! FINALLY a way to make hard boiled eggs where the shells peel off easily!! I’ve almost stopped making egg salad & deviled eggs due to the difficulty in peeling the eggs! Today I made cob salad and had to hard boil eggs. I’m so glad I found your recipe or I would have been picking egg shells off of the eggs forever. It took me 30 seconds to peel 3 eggs! Amazing!
Forgot to mention that the eggs hard boiled perfectly, no grey ring and the whites were tender and not at all rubbery. Magic!
Hello! Thank you so much for this wonderful comment, Wen! I’m glad the process was as successful for you as it always is for me. You made my day and I appreciate you taking the time to stop by. 🙂
Wish I would have known about this method sooner. Boiled eggs for Easter the day before and on Easter I go to peel the eggs and the shells stuck. End result..very ugly deviled eggs. I will use this method next. Thanks for sharing this and I will let you know how they turn out.
Hi Connie, I’ve been there! Ugh, that’s so frustrating having shells that stick, especially when you’re making deviled eggs for a special occasion. I’m glad you found me for next time, though, I promise you’re going to have great success with this method. Hope you had a nice Easter anyway. Thanks for stopping by to comment.
The vinegar trick in the water is the best advice!! Thanks.
You’re welcome, Jessica! 🙂
I just tried this approach and it absolutely works as described! It’s the best method I have ever tried and the eggs peeled beautifully.
Thanks, Brett! It kind of seems like magic, doesn’t it? 🙂
I will admit to being a little skeptical when I tried this. I am an absolute believer now. Cooked a dozen eggs and everyone was perfect and don’t look like they’ve been pecked at. Thank you!
Valerie, this absolutely made my day! So glad you tried the method and are now a believer. 🙂
My boiled eggs always came out in chunks for years. I’ve been using this method for a couple of years and only had one or two eggs that broke on me. This is the best way I know to boil eggs.
Thank you, but I believe that you have left out the most important part, which is how do you peel the egg? Do you still have to tap the larger end, or roll it, or do you just grip both halves and pull the egg apart?
Hi Max, Just peel as you normally would, I tap the egg to crack all around and then just peel it off.
I am so very excited to try this method! I read many of the comments below and, without much doubt at all, you have definitely found the answer to beautifully peeled boiled eggs. I’m so glad I came across this and can’t wait to try your method soon!
Hi Lynette! Thanks for taking the time to stop by and I’d love to hear back from you after you try the method here. Have a great day!
Wish it would let you send a pic Id send one of the amazing difference in the ones I just did, I did 12 then when they were looking like crap I Googled and found this know how,so then luckily I had several more and did exactly as it says and it definitely works, no more wasting eggs!! Tbank you!!!!!
Sheila, this is awesome! Thanks for making my day. I’m so glad the eggs worked out after you came here. 🙂
Thanks so much, this is a great inspiration to me. I have been battling with cooking of eggs to get a perfect peel but no avail .
Thank You, Thank You, Thank you. I had my doubts the first time I tried it but the eggs couldn’t look any worse than the cold water method. The eggs came out looking like I bought them at the grocery store and the whites were not rubbery. thank You again.
Janet, your timing here was perfect! I was boiling my own eggs this morning as I have pulled up your awesome comments. 😊 I’m glad the eggs came out so well for you and really appreciate you taking the time to stop by. Thanks again, you brightened my day!
I gave this recipe to my boss who loves hard boiled eggs. He tried the recipe and yesterday he brought the shelled, split down the middle egg to my desk and said, “You can’t get more perfect that this”. Again I say, Thank You.
Janet, That is awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe with your boss and I love his response. You made my day with this. 🙂
This is the best method that I’ve come across. It hasn’t worked perfectly every time but that may have something to do with the age of the eggs?
I however boil the water in a kettle (I have an electric one) and pour the boiling water over the eggs as it seems safer for me than putting the eggs into a pot of boiling water on the stove.
I have a theory about why this method works so much better for making it easier to peel the eggs.
When the boiling water meets the chilled egg the membranes/cuticle between the egg shell and the egg white quickly attaches itself to the eggshell. You’ll notice when you peel the egg that the membrane is not on the egg white. When you have difficulty peeling an egg you’ll notice that the membrane is sticking to the egg white and not the shell. This has been my experience and I’ve been hard boiling eggs for 6 decades. Whether my theory holds or not, I’ll be using this method for as long as I continue to boil eggs. I hope this method works for you too.
This worked PERFECTLY! Thank you soooo much for sharing. I used it for my memorial day macaroni salad and it was simple…..
I make eggs for my dogs as well, so this will come in VERY handy. Awesome! Thanks again!
Hi Janie, Glad they worked out for you. Thanks for taking the time to comment!
These eggs turn out perfect everytime I make them! So easy to peel and yummy, thanks for the amazing recipe!
Thanks, Bri! I’m glad you tried these and really appreciate the recipes you’ve been trying as well as your own that you’ve shared with us. You’re a chef in the making! 🙂
Game changer!! Deviled eggs are my favorite at family dinners and potlucks but I’ve never been able to master the pretty whites to make them on my own, until now!! Thank you so much for sharing.
Angela, you just made my day! I’m glad you found the recipe and that it’s helped you. 🙂
Of all the steps listed are essential, the one I found to be critical is the older egg. I had 6 left over from a use by date in late Oct. They had been refrigerated (I know) and bought 12 fresh eggs. The fresh ended up breaking into pieces so small I could have used the pieces as a mosaic for a dollhouse. The older eggs pealed like everyone dreams of.
Finally! Perfect hard boiled eggs! After trying so many concoctions – vinegar, salt, baking soda etc…. This recipe actually works! No more ugly deviled eggs in this house. Thank you Sally.
Hi B.B. I’m so glad you found the recipe! 🙂
I’m desperate to try this! Is it me or is there no option to print? (going to cut and paste into a Word doc anyway because the egg pix are making my mouth water, but just wondering about the ability to print?)
Hi Tristan, this post doesn’t have a printable “recipe” per se but you make a good point for people who do want to print the instructions. I’ll add a printable instructive tomorrow for you. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Also thanks for the kind words about the egg photos 🙂
I’m a 69 yr lady that has never had good luck with making easy to peel hard boiled eggs. They usually get to be egg salad or just chopped up in a potato salad. Well , I’m here to say Thank You . I was so pleased with this trial that I’m saving it into my recipes . I love love this. I was even giggling when the shells came off so easy. I’m going to tell all my friends and family about this secret. Again Thank you so much for posting this. . It just goes to show , you are never to old to learn something new.
Ethel, This is truly one of the best comments I’ve ever received on my blog. I’m so glad you found this and that it was a success and I also appreciate you for sharing with your family and friends. Agreed, we can always be learning something!! You made my whole week. Thanks again!!
All I can say is WOW!!! This is the only way I will boil eggs from now on!😁😁😁
Thanks so much, Jen! 🙂
OMG…I LOVE YOU!
My life will never be the same (the boiled egg part, anyway). Following your instructions truly DID make all the difference in the world….in every aspect of this process.
From the whites being tender, the yolks perfectly cooked and of course, the shells ….practically jumping off the eggs! I wish I would have taken a picture of the mess I was in last night. In spite of my best efforts, I couldn’t remove even a tiny shard of shell without taking a chunk of egg white with it. (Those ended up as egg salad, needless to say).
So I gave it another shot using your directions (instead of my own personal recipe for disaster) and by golly…I now have blemish-free, boiled and peeled eggs, pickling in the fridge.
Again, my regards! You’re my hero ~
Lisa, you have officially made my entire holiday season in this regard. You have given me one of the best comments ever on my blog and I’m so happy this method worked out for you.Happy Thanksgiving and thank you again so much! xoxo
I was skeptical because my previous method worked “pretty well” but I’ve never been shy to try something new. I’m a believer and this will now be my method of choice. Not only was the peel easier, my yolks turned out better than ever. Thanks!
Thanks Andrea! I’ve had many a convert with this method and I’m glad you gave it a try. Thanks for stopping by to let me know. It means a lot. 🙂
OMG! This is what I’ve been looking for! I went on a quest to make the perfect hard boiled egg and I just found it! I’ve tried everything except for baking hard boiled eggs and now I don’t need to even try. My eggs are perfect in every way after trying this. Texture, color and flavor are perfect. Plus, peeling is a breeze. I don’t think I’ve ever made hard boiled eggs and have every single egg turn out perfect. Thank you for sharing your tips!
Thank you, Lori! 🙂 It was a game-changer for me, too. I used to avoid making any kind of deviled egg or the like until I discovered this method. I’m glad it worked so well for you. Thanks for making my week. xo
Thank you for this new way. I have not tried it but the physics makes sense. Just wanted to pass along away to do your farm fresh eggs. But you have to invest about $80.00 in an new electronic pressure pot. Instant pot is a good brand but I bought mine at Walmart so it is their store brand. Easy peel farm fresh hard boiled eggs 6 minutes. Like all appliances it has limatation but for easy peel hard boiled eggs it can’t be beat.
Hi Jim, Thanks for stopping by with your great advice. I have an Instant Pot but haven’t cooked hard boiled eggs in it yet. I’ll try that with my freshest eggs!
In a word – amazing. I tried this the same day I found it on Pinterest and my eggs were very easy to peel and done to perfection! I did not have any eggs crack but I’m sure it’s only a matter of time, so I appreciate the tip for that. Thanks for sharing this method!
Tasha, thanks so much! What a nice comment and I’m glad they worked so well for you. 🙂
Do you put the eggs in an ice bath after the 12 minutes?
Hi Emily, I do not. Just run cold water over the eggs while pouring off the boiling water. Ice bath is not necessary.
Ok I tried this over the weekend and boy am I glad I did! The shells came off so nicely!! My deviled eggs were very yummy, and no rubbery whites! Thanks Sally for sharing this!! I’ll be sure to tell everyone that complains about shells sticking to their eggs about this recipe!
Excellent, Kath! I’m so glad you found it. It’s life changing, for sure. 🙂
I’ve tried many other promised methods without success. This one worked like a charm! My husband loves HB eggs but gets frustrated if the shells stick. Thank you for this! He was egg-static hahahahaha! 😂
Patty, I’m so glad you found the recipe. I used to dread making hard boiled eggs before discovering this method. Thanks for your comment!
Worked perfectly, I’ll never go back to the old way again!!
Right? It’s fool proof. 🙂
Do you cook for 12 min per dozen?
Hi Ruth, 12 minutes no matter the number of eggs. I make 3 eggs several times a week and cook them for 12 minutes to perfection, as well.
Am I doing something wrong? When I lowered my cold eggs into the boiling water, most of them popped and cracked. Otherwise it works great and very easy to peel.
Hi Shylo, I’ve had mine crack a time or two also. Try lowering them more slowly into the water with a spoon. If that doesn’t work, your eggs might be a bit too cold so you could bring them out of the fridge when you first turn the water on to boil and then they can warm up a bit before placing in the water. OR, you could run very warm water over them just before placing in the boiling water to bring up the temp of the shells just a couple of degrees. Hope this helps. 🙂
Wonderfully cooked eggs are a must! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome Wendi! And I couldn’t agree more. Thanks for stopping by.
This method of boiling eggs is a miracle! For years, I have basically destroyed every egg I peel because I can’t ever get the shell to slide off. I boiled eggs several times this week because I actually have faith I can peel them.
Thanks it works perfect I like this method I’m doing this way again.
I’m so happy to finally find this method that works! Thank you!
Finally, a method to make peeling eggs a flawless task! I get my eggs fresh from the farm & never seem to be able to peel them easily…..until now! Thank you!
Hi Pam, I’m glad this works for you. We have our own chickens so it’s nice to be able to use them when I want to hard boil and egg and peel it perfectly. Thanks for taking the time to comment!
Thank you so much for this method…I usually make my husband peel the eggs because I get so frustrated. We both peeled these and were done with the dozen in less than 3 minutes, we couldn’t believe it! I will never use another method to make hard boiled eggs:)
Jill, I’m glad I could help! Thanks for taking the time to comment. 🙂
This really works! I’ve tried all of the other tips and have had limited success. Thank you!
Karla, I’m glad it worked for you. This method was life changing for me, as well. Thanks for taking the time to comment!
I’m converted!!! Thank you so much. I was getting so frustrated with hard boiled eggs. I too tried a bunch of different methods and nothing was working. I hated when my kids wanted one because I dreaded peeling one for them. In the last 4 days I don’t know how many people I’ve told about your method. I now have 4 dozen brightly colored hard boiled eggs in the fridge and if my kids want me to peel one for them (even though they can now totally do it themselves), I’ll happily do it for them. Thank you Thank you!
Jamie, I’m so glad this method has helped you and thanks for telling others about it! I just peeled one of my son’s easter eggs myself and yes, it was a breeze and peeled perfectly. Thanks for taking the time to write such a nice note. You made my Monday.
Hi Sally !
Thank you for this tip !
My children didn’t say that my eggs were ill and ugly, they ate them all!
(excuse me for my english, i’m french and i don’t speak a good english)
Carine, You are welcome!
It worked perfectly!
I will now be making boiled eggs more often. Thank you 😉
