Directions
Place the eggs in a saucepan that comfortably holds the number you are cooking. Fill the pan with just enough cold water so that the water come about 1 inch over the tops of the eggs. bring the pan of water to a boil Turn off the heat and cover the pan. Let stand for 15 mintues. Drain the eggs and immediately place them in a bowl of cold water. Then the eggs have cooled, gently crack them on a hard, flat surface to loosen the shells. Starting at the large end where there is an air space, peel off the shell and the thin white membrane. Dip the egg in cold water occasionally to help.
If you don't know if an egg is hard cooked or raw, simply spin it on a flat surface. If it wobbles, it's cooked; if it spins evenly, it's raw. Origin: Cooking with Regis & Kathie Lee. Shared by: Sharon Stevens, Nov/94.
