The Secret to Perfectly Peeled Hard-Boiled Eggs

Step 1: Boil the Eggs
Place the eggs in a pot: Arrange your eggs in a single layer in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the eggs by about an inch. Starting with cold water helps ensure the eggs cook evenly.

Bring to a boil: Place the pot on the stove and bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat slightly to maintain a gentle boil.

Cook the eggs: Let the eggs boil for 10-12 minutes, depending on how well-cooked you like your yolk. For fully hard-boiled eggs, aim for 12 minutes.
