place egg in a saucepan cover it with water place on stove over high heat and when the water begins to boils begin timing the cooking of the egg. Let it cook 5 minutes minimum and max 15 minutes or until the is no more water. Rinse in cold water to stop the cooking process. Cool in the refridgerater.
Get a small pot, add water..just enough to cover the egg.
Add the egg...boil for about 3-5 minutes and there ya go...Kimmie
Put the eggs you wish to boil into a pot that has a well-fitting lid.
Fill the pot with just enough water to cover over the tops of the eggs.
Put the pot on the stove, on the highest setting, until it begins to boil. Once it reaches a boil, turn the heat completely off and put the lid on. Leave the eggs for 12-15 minutes (I always do 15 because I like a hard boil.)
Carefully pour out the water in the sink, and refill the pot with cold water and, if you can, pour ice into the pot. Once the eggs are no longer hot to the touch you can roll them on the counter or tap them on the counter and peel them.
This cold water will make the eggs much easier to crack and peel because the "meat" of the egg will pull back from the shell a bit.
Eat immediately or refridgerate. Don't leave the eggs out at room temperature for more than an hour.
Sit on it.
