    Foolproof Hard-Boiled Eggs, From America’s Test Kitchen Really works!, Didnt work Eggs are cooked but peeled terribly Any ideas? Followed exactly Inside peel was so stuck to egg and shell , Great recipe Make sure you put at least 1 inch of water over the eggs This is key to ensuring that theres enough hot water there to cook the eggs over the 10 minutes of sit time If your pan is packed with eggs this is even more important That leads to the second key which is to let them sit at least 10 minutes I live at sea level (highest boiling temp) and i let them sit for 13 minutes before the ice bath I imagine higher altitudes would potentially need more water and/or more time They dont turn out tougher with the added 3 minutes When Ive done less time Ill sometimes get yolks that arent quite cooked through Great recipe but like anything, may need some fine tuning to your attitude and equipment
