Best Hard-Boiled Eggs
Spring 2020
That grey line you see between the yolk and the white on so many hard-boiled eggs just means they are overcooked. The trick to perfectly cooked eggs is to slightly undercook them and chill them in water to stop them from cooking any further.
2 large eggs
1 Place eggs in a pot with enough cold water to cover by 1 inch (2.5 cm). Bring to a boil and boil for 9 minutes. Drain and fill the pot with very cold water to stop the eggs from cooking further. Peel, cut and season just before serving.
