Do you know what makes a cook truly great? It's not the techniques or tricks they may have up their sleeve. It's consistency. You heard me right! Focus on being a consistent cook and you'll be able to rule your kitchen! This week, I'm sharing a small tip with y'all: the right way to cook hard-boiled eggs. But that's not it, these tips will help you get it right, every single time! Here's my process: Start with eggs submerged in room-temperature water in a saucepan. Bring the water to a roaring boil. Once it starts boiling, turn off the flame and cover the saucepan. Set a timer for 10 minutes or your desired time based on the level of doneness you like. For perfect hard-boiled eggs, 10 minutes is optimum. Once ten minutes are up, place the eggs in ice-cold water to stop the cooking process. Don't miss this step or your eggs can overcook. That's it!
Choose eggs that are at least a week to 10 days old to achieve perfect results each time. Older eggs are better to hard boil than newer ones. They are also a lot easier to peel. Refrigerating your eggs for at least a week or two also greatly affects how the hard-boiled eggs turn out. If your eggs are difficult to peel, crack them all around and soak them in water for 5 minutes. Water seeps into the shell, and it peels easily Adding a teaspoon of vinegar or salt to the water when boiling prevents the egg white from running out in case the shell breaks open while cooking. Salt also makes it easier to peel the egg once cooked. I have detailed step by step on how to cook hard-boiled eggs on my blog. Just click on the link below 🤗
