Best way to hard-boil an egg?

InstantPot. Hands down the fastest, easiest and with the best results. The shell almost falls off by itself clean!

The Ice water step makes the egg easier to peal.

Just had to mention this factoid. The Lava Lamp is actually based on an egg timer that was used in Bars. When you put the eggs into boiling water you turn on the lamp, when the wax floats the eggs are done. Yes this still works with a modern Lava Lamp.

Put them in a pot with salt water covering them by 2 inches. Cover the pot, bring to a boil, remove from heat and let sit for 12 to 15 minutes depending on how “done” you like them. Do NOT remove the cover until your desired time is complete. Put them in ice water to stop the cooking.

Or put them in a rice cooker in the steamer basket, steam with salt water for 13 to 15 min, depending on what type of boiled egg you prefer. Put them in ice water to stop the cooking. Super easy and perfect every time.

Don’t like hard boiled eggs.

Hard boiled eggs (and really eggs in general, although hard boiled are by far the worst) cause me to have… ummm… we’ll call it ‘digestive distress.’ So really you can just skip the eggs. I and everyone around me will be much better off…

Crack eggs, put each in an egglete or other silicone housing then dip sealed housing into boiling water for 5mins. Done.

Been using an egg cooker. Steams them. Cold water for a few minutes. Shells come right off.
