This is the best way to make "hard boiled" eggs! They are super easy to peel, they cook evenly, and the eggs are nice and tender. A method you're sure to turn to again and again.
📝 Ingredients
- 6 - 8 large eggs
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Add about 1-inch of water to a medium pot (just below height of steamer basket).
- 2Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. Insert a steamer basket (legs of basket should be propped up if it has collapsable legs).
- 3Set eggs on steamer basket, cover with lid right away (leave pot set on medium-high heat).
- 4Let cook 6 - 15 minutes to desired doneness*. Runny yolks take 6 - 8 minutes, nearly set yolks are about 9 - 11 minutes, and fully cooked through yolks take about 13 - 15 minutes (hard boiled type).
- 5While eggs are cooking fill a medium bowl with ice and water.
- 6Once eggs are done cooking immediately transfer to ice water to cool so eggs don't continue to cook. Let rest for at least a few minutes before peeling, to chill eggs through if preferred let rest at least 15 minutes.
- 7To peel the eggs easily crack all over then roll on countertop. Run under cold water and peel. Rinse away any debris of shells.
- 8Store fully cooked through steamed eggs in the fridge an an airtight container for up to 1 week.
