I struggled with how to make hard boiled eggs consistently until my wife showed me this technique. It’s seriously the best way I’ve ever come across to make a hard boiled egg. Once you do it this way, you’ll never do it differently.
For some reason I could never get it right. It’d either be too hard or too soft. It was never the same from one batch to the next.
It’s as simple as can be, and I feel silly that it never came to me. Here you go.
