DLTK's Crafts for Kids How to make a Hard Boiled Egg

• Lay eggs on bottom of the pot.
   
• Try not to stack your eggs (it's better to do it in batches than overfill your pot).
   
• Fill with water so it's an inch over the eggs.
   
• Put on high heat and bring to a rapid boil.
   
• Let boil for 12 minutes.
   
• Remove from heat.
   
• Remove the eggs immediately from the pot (I use a slotted spoon) and plunge them into cold water until you can pick them out of the water without burning your hands (a bit under a minute)
