- Step 1: Add eggs in water in a pot
- Step 2: Heat water to boil for 10 minutes
- Step 3: Turn the heat off
- Step 4: Pour out the water to cool down egg temperature
- Step 5: Peel egg shell off
- Step 6: Enjoy!
Now, let's dive into some technical information for each of these steps. First, start by placing your eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a saucepan. Add enough water to the saucepan so that there is one inch of water above the eggs. Next, slowly heat the stovetop from medium to high until the water reaches a boil. For regular-sized eggs, let them cook in the boiling water for about 5-10 minutes. Once the time is up, turn off the stovetop and carefully pour out the hot water into the sink. Allow the eggs to cool down to room temperature, and then start cracking open the eggshells. Lastly, wash off any residual eggshells in the sink and enjoy your perfectly boiled eggs with a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
