    What’s your process? I like to put the eggs in the pot first. Then I bring it to the sink and cover them with cold water. I put it on the stove and heat it up on high. When it boils I put the lid on and turn the heat off, and set a timer for 11 minutes. Now you may be thinking that’s way too hard, but the temperature is dropping without heat. Yolk is just barely solid in the center. Then I chill them with cold water and dry them off while they’re still warm, and put them in the fridge.

      I figured out how to boil farm fresh eggs that peel easily. Bring water to boil, let eggs warm up on the counter. Once boiling put the eggs gently into the pot with a spoon. Bring back to a boil, cover pot, turn off heat, and let sit for 15 minutes for medium or 18 minutes for hard. While waiting, fill a big bowl with ice and water. Once eggs are done, spoon them immediately into ice water bath. They’re done when they’re cool to the touch.
