Ingredients
Method
- Prepare a large ice bath in a bowl, large enough to fit all 12 eggs.
- Fill a large pot with water over high heat and bring to a boil.
- Once the water reaches a boil, add your eggs to the pot (very gently!) and let the water come back to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the eggs at a gentle simmer.
- If you want soft-boiled eggs, take them out after 8 minutes and put them in the ice bath.
- If you want hard-boiled eggs, take them out after 14 minutes and transfer to the ice bath.
- Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for 5 minutes. Gently crack the shells all over with the back of a spoon. Working in the ice bath, peel the boiled eggs, keeping them in the water partially to help loosen the shells.
