Hard-boiled eggs are easy – a pot of water and eggs! Timing is tricky if you want perfect eggs that have yellow centers and not those nasty green-tinged ones!

Ingredients

  • Eggs
  • Water
  • Canola Oil (if not later dyeing the eggs for Easter)

Instructions

  1. Place eggs in a pot that is large enough to hold them in a single layer.
  2. Cover with water so that water level is one inch or more over the top of the eggs.
  3. Add a couple of tablespoons of canola oil.
  4. Place on stove and bring to a rolling boil.
  5. Once boiling, remove from heat and allow eggs to continue to cook in hot water for 15 minutes (set a timer).
  6. Move pot of eggs to sink and empty hot water.
  7. Run cold water continuously over eggs until the water in the pot is cold and the eggs are cool to the touch.
  8. Drain and store in lidded container in refrigerator until ready to use.
