Fail safe hard boiled eggs:
Fill a pot with enough water to cover the eggs by a couple inches.
Put the eggs in the cold water and turn the range on high.
After 12 minutes, take the pot off the burner and let sit for 5 minutes.
Pour out the hot water and fill the pot with cold water (a few ice cubes won't hurt).
Add a big splash of white vinegar to the water. This is what makes the shells come off easily.
Dry and mark with a permanent pen.

I never knew what those grey edges meant, thanks!
Rachel, I hope your eggs come out beautiful from now on! Ours sure seem to work with this method.
Perfect! I always have a hard time with hard boiled eggs and it seemed like such and easy thing. I'm bookmarking these instructions!
Thanks, Chrissy! I hope they work for you as well as they do for us.
Thank you so much for sharing this method! I really have never been able to make the perfect hard-boiled egg, they always came out cracked. I love the vinegar tip.
