Hard Boiled Eggs

[MarHo]

Just curious how you guys make them ive read about a million diff ways to do it. I usually put eggs in pot of cold water then bring to boil for 10 mins then cool right away with cold water.

I had a friend (who happens to be a girl) insist that she knew the best way to do this. I think she cooks 'em for 17 minutes, which I said was way longer than necessary, but I must confess that I liked her eggs.

You shouldn't start timing them until the water is boiling - then it's ten minutes....

I do it for exactly 8 minutes after the water starts boiling and I get them a little soft in the yolk but not drippy. Each minute gets the yolk harder so it all depends how you like them.
