Directions
Instructions for the Perfect Hard-Boiled Egg, Last weekend I undercooked my hard-boiled eggs and decided instead of putting them back on the stove I should save time and microwave them for a minute Well, the eggs exploded (I salvaged the pieces) Now you know why my nickname is Runs with Scissors Ironically, I came across instructions for hard-boiled eggs in The Amish Cook at Home just as I was getting ready to make more The Amish Cook says cooking a hard-boiled egg isn’t as simple as throwing it into a pot of water because the timing is important (you don’t want an overcooked or undercooked egg) Thanks to the Amish, my shells came off easily, the eggs cooked perfectly, and I didn’t microwave anything , This is the BEST recipe for PERFECTLY cooked hard boiled eggs When my ice cubes starting melting quickly I decided to add one of our cooler ice blocks It really helped to keep the water cold with no dumping and replacing needed! Our perfectly boiled eggs cooled quickly, completely, and deliciously!, I needed hard boiled eggs for red beet eggs so went with this method I followed the instructions other then I made 18 eggs They cooked up nice and were easy to peel I did add salt to the water too
