But it does vary by how soft or hard you want your yolk to be. If you like the yolk on the softer side let the eggs sit in the water a little shorter time. If you like the yolk cooked a bit more, leave them in the hot water a little longer. The white will always cook the fastest so it really is a matter of yolk preference.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11159582653513181811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399409475327068262.post-58388222156145951982010-08-19T09:27:08.144-06:002010-08-19T09:27:08.144-06:00I think that green grainy yolks were one of the ma...I think that green grainy yolks were one of the main reasons that I hated hard boiled eggs as a kid. They can be so delightful when properly cooked. I'd like to add that the cooking time varies quite a bit by altitude.Hunger and Thirsthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04331585553306515502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399409475327068262.post-38127499888347887522010-08-18T21:23:28.462-06:002010-08-18T21:23:28.462-06:00Bon bon!

I taught a class one time at Thanksgiving Point where I had to get this thing perfect, including the peeling and you know, sometimes it just doesn't work- sometimes it does. I do agree with you Bonnie, the older the eggs peel easier. We took some eggs right off the farm, boiled them and they were impossible to peel. <br /><br />Your yolks should be in a magazine, just perfect!

Sadly, older eggs do peel easier. I've tried the methods where you plunge the eggs into cold water halfway through and then continue in hot water but they have never made a difference to me. Really it's simply the age of the egg.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11159582653513181811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3399409475327068262.post-2320051476897993252010-08-05T09:21:53.820-06:002010-08-05T09:21:53.820-06:00Hooray!

I've tried Martha Stewart's technique with no improvement:( Thanks for the tutorial...it sounds simple with picture perfect results! Hopefully they will peel easily too:)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06072961274277978490noreply@blogger.com
