How to make Hard Boiled Eggs - Easy Video Recipe
Hello and welcome to In the Kitchen with Matt, I am your host Matt Taylor. Today, we are
making Hard Boiled Eggs. These hard-boiled eggs are really really simple to make, it
couldn't be easier. Easter is just in a few days, so this is a perfect time to make hard-boiled
eggs. Let's get started. For our tools and ingredients we have a pot, and we will add
some water to this, we also will be adding ice to the end. We have a dozen eggs, and
we have some salt. All right what we will do is we will take our eggs, and we will just
put them in here, like so. And then we will fill this up with water until it is about
an inch higher then the eggs. And then we will put it on the stovetop and turn it to
medium high to high. Ok as you can see I have water added, like I said, about an inch above
the eggs. Now I am going to add about a tsp of salt to the water, it doesn't have to be
exact. Then we will bring it to a boil. All right Now that our water is boiling, let's
go ahead and let it boil for about 2 minutes. All right once our two minutes is up, let's
go ahead and remove it from the heat, after we remove the eggs from the heat, lets let
them sit in the hot water for 12 to 13 minutes. Ok now what we do is we take our eggs, and
we go ahead and pour out the water here, about half way, what we want to do is we want to
stop the cooking process. I am going to go ahead and take this water and turn it on,
cold water, and then I am going to just get rid of some of this water, like that. Ok then
I am going to go ahead and take my ice and go ahead and dump it in. And what this is
going to do is it is going to really chill the water, and it is going to stop the cooking
process on the eggs. And we will let it set here for about 10 to 15 minutes. Ok and then
we will just take the eggs and put them back in the carton. And then what I normally do,
I will just go ahead and close it up and I will write H B on there, with a sharpie. Ok
we have our egg, and we will go ahead and tap it like that, so it cracks a little bit,
roll it a little bit, not very hard. All right then we just come in here, and peel it off.
The peel comes right off, really easy. And there we go, it looks really good. All right
the hard boiled eggs are done, incredibly simple and easy to do, if I can do it, you
can do it. I am Matt Taylor, this has been another episode of In the Kitchen with Matt,
