• Place eggs in a pot and cover with 1 inch of water.
• Bring to a rolling boil and turn off the heat.
• Let sit for 10-12 minutes depending on how you like the yolks
• place in ice bath for 15 minutes

Some people add a pinch of salt and a splash of vinegar to the boiling water.

• Boil a pot of water.
• Lower the eggs into the water (can be straight from the fridge or room temp).
