Hard-Boiled Eggs • Perfect Every Time!
Cooking is a learning process and many mistakes can occur during this delicious educational journey! I remember trying to make my first coffee icing. The recipe was asking for a certain amount of coffee ☕ and I literally added it in granules… not even diluted with hot water. It was horrible!
Undeniably, I’m sure I’m not the only one who overcooked eggs and ended it up with that green ring around the yolks. Don’t worry, it’s safe ✅ to eat them although seeing a green ring is not really appealing. Actually, it’s safer to eat overcooked than undercooked eggs.
How does that green ring occur? What happens is when the eggs are boiled (or cooked) too long, it creates a chemical reaction called denaturation – my husband is a scientist 👨🔬! The sulfur from the whites combines with the iron from the yolks.
After a few attempts and having unsuccessful results, I called 📞 my mom. She told me how to proceed and they have been flawlessly cooked ever since! Hard-Boiled Eggs • Perfect Every Time is what this episode is all about!
As much as we think that boiling eggs is easy, there’s still a cooking method and timing to get them right all the time. In the video, I show you how simple it is to accomplish. When serving Russian Deviled Eggs or simply making an Egg Salad Sandwich 🥪, you want them to be just right!
What you need to make Hard-Boiled Eggs • Perfect Every Time is a timer. When the water finally starts boiling, the time is set for 9 to 12 minutes ⏰ depending on the size of the eggs. From here, they’re transferred to an iced water bath for 15 minutes to stop the cooking process and cool… done!
There’s also a method when it comes to peeling off the shells…
Always start at the larger end because there’s an air pocket that makes it easier to separate the shell from the membrane. If there’s a little bit of stubbornness when peeling, let cold water from the tap run over it while doing it. Also, keep in mind that farm-fresh eggs 👩🌾👨🌾 are harder to peel…
This Hard-Boiled Eggs • Perfect Every Time foolproof method is a good one to know. It cooks the eggs 🥚 marvellously without resulting with a green ring plus it’s a charm to peel off the shells. There will be no more disappointments using this method… I promise!
