Notes
- For the perfect hard-boiled egg, fill a pot with water and dash of salt. Bring the water to boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down but keep the water at a rolling boil. Add the eggs carefully with a slotted spoon. Set a timer for 10 minutes. Once time is up, pour out the hot water. Fill the pot with ice water and let set for 10 minutes. Drain the water. Peel just before eating or adding to a recipe.
