Many years ago when it was my kids first easter,I had to call my mom on how long to boil an egg.
My mom was a terrible cook,but she knew how to boil an egg.
Ever had left over ,chopped up porkchops mixed in rice with heinz 57 sauce?

I LOVE BOILED EGGS!!
Forget the brainiacs - here is how it is done to get that perfect soft yolk for dipping the soldiers, regardless of temperature/egg size.........
1. Eggs, out of the fridge/room temperature, grab what you want and place in a pot.
2. Fill with cold water until eggs are just covered.
3. Set to max heat on the hotplate with the lid off.
4. When it starts to boil, time for exactly 3 minutes (smaller eggs less then 700gm pack 2:45sec).
5. At the 3min mark, immediately remove and rinse with cold water.
Enjoy with soldiers..........

But we still can't agree on just one way to boil an egg?
Perhaps the UN should address this...
World Peace...and eggs!!!!

Or you can just buy one of these and keep it wherever you keep your eggs so they are all the same initial temperature. They work a treat!

The perfect hard boiled egg (IMO):
place eggs in sauce pan with cold tap water (or whatever water you cook with)
Turn burner/element on high
Wait for water with eggs in it to come to boil
As soon as water is at a boil shut off heat souce
Leave eggs in the water for fifteen minutes
After the fifteen minutes is up remove eggs and cool under cold water or by ice bath
Place hard boiled eggs in fridge....will keep well for two weeks.

Always better soft boiled when eating with toast!
From the fridge into boiling water for 4.5 minutes. Fast cold water bath.
Peel carefully and put onto the center of a piece of toast or any bread toasted.
Salt and pepper and put the spoon through the middle...liquid yellow lava...hmmmmm.
Peace
