Works like a charm! Perfectly cooked and easy to peel as well. Thank you, thank you.

I have always boiled my eggs for hard-boiled, but decided to try this. Followed recipe exactly and 12 mins yielded less than hard-boiled eggs. They weren't bad, but definitely far from hard-boiled. Unfortunately, these were for Easter baskets. UGH

I don’t have a steamer basket so have brought enough water to cover eggs by at least an inch to a boil, then add the eggs directly from the fridge, bring them to a boil, boil 12 minutes, then plunge them into ice water and peel as soon as they are cool enough to handle. I often make 30 eggs at a time and they always turn out and are easy to peel.

I too have been using this method for a couple years now, and it never fails. I always cook a dozen at a time and they are perfect after 12 minutes. Never have a problem with peeling whether the eggs are fresh or not.

I've been using this method for a couple years now, and always get great results -- the eggs peel easily as well. The amount of time may vary based on the batch size and pot size -- mine are perfect in 16-17 minutes.
