Egg Boiling People

Worked perfect every time for me too. Had to try if fresh farm eggs would mess it up and they turned out perfect too.

I'm sure my wife could mess up this recipe though. Probably burn the water. lol

I did half a dozen last night and had one this morning and the shell fell off!

12 eggs? Did you stack them? They need some room to cook.

Yeah, Alagnak, by publicly making fun of her, you just sent out some "my husband is a richard waves" that only women are tapped into. She might not know exactly what you said, but she still knows…..

Don't use fresh eggs, they should be at least a couple weeks old.

I learned this over 40 years ago, and have never had trouble peeling an egg yet.

I use a deep frying pan. holds a dozen with ease and room to spare.

I tried the tack idea last night and it worked great. I have always been frustrated by peeling hard boiled eggs, but not anymore. Here is how I hard boil my eggs:

1. Put the eggs in a pan and cover with cold water.

2. Bring water to a boil. Once boiling, let it boil for one minute.

3. After one minute, turn off heat and cover pan. Let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.

4. After 12 minutes rinse with cold water until cool and you are good to go. It is hard to overcook an egg with this method.

Thanks for the tack idea. I see a lot of hard boiled eggs in my future!

if we had some ham we could have some ham and eggs if we had some eggs.

Yep, my wife came home the other night with the pan going and full of eggs... What the he** are you making now and using all my eggs for?

I said, "these are not your eggs. They are my eggs."

[eyeguy 54]

I have a half dozen with that recipe in the fridge right now that I made earlier this week.

All we had was unfiltered cider vinegar.... Holy pucker, turn your face inside out.... Wow is that some potent stuff!

Gonna be interesting to try here in a few days. I need to talk a friend into trying one and say they are really good and watch the facial reaction.

Steam them instead of boiling them. This makes them peel a lot easier as well. You can buy steamers designed especially for eggs.

[Finns]

Worked great!

Side note; 12 eggs fit just right in a quart jar.

[JP Z]

Finns, did you pickle them up?

[Finns]

Yes; part of eyeguy's recipe.

1 cup vinegar cider

1 cup white vinegar

1/2 cup water

1 TSP canning salt

1/2 TSP tabasco

2 TSP pickling spice

1/4 cup brown sugar

Left out the onions and peppers.

I boiled an egg today. It's hard to beat.

[hockeybc69]

My 2 batches are 3 weeks since being made. Trying to get the crew together to taste test. I am afraid if I try one, I will just eat them all.

Oh man, I'd be sleeping in the garage if I ate that combo. I don't have enough dogs to blame on that odor, but I bet that tasted amazing.
