Easy-Peel Hard-Boiled Eggs

Ingredients:

• Fresh eggs
• Cold water
• Ice

Instructions:

1. Prep & Boil:
   Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan. Cover with cold water, about an inch above the eggs. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
2. Cook:
   Once boiling, cover the pot, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 12 minutes (adjust slightly for egg size).
3. Cool:
   Prepare a bowl of ice water. When time’s up, transfer eggs immediately into the ice bath and let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
4. Peel:
   Gently tap eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell. Start peeling from the wider end, where there’s usually an air pocket. Rinse under cold water to remove any remaining shell pieces.
