Boiling the eggs:
This is the way I make my boiled eggs. Put the eggs into a pan and cover them with water.
Tip – Add a pinch of baking soda to the water, the eggshells can be peeled off much easier!
Switch on the stove on a medium-high flame. Set a timer for 10 minutes. Once the 10 minutes is done, switch off the flame and cover the pan. After a few minutes, drain out the water and fill the pan with cold water. Peel the eggshells and keep the boiled eggs aside.
Or use an Automatic Egg Cooker:
Of course, there is nothing like having an egg cooker! There is no denying the convenience of this gadget! if you are a family that eats a lot of boiled eggs, it might be worth it to get this Dash Egg Cooker which cooks 6 eggs at a time, or this Dash Deluxe Egg Cooker which cooks 12 eggs at once, it is a great option if your family is bigger.
