Hard-Boiled
Hard-boiled eggs are cooked in their shells in boiling water until both the egg yolks and whites become solid. There are many methods to getting perfect hard-boiled eggs (before the yolk gets that ugly gray ring around it). Try this one: Place your eggs in a pan covered with an inch of cold water (for six or fewer eggs; two inches for seven or more). Bring the water to a full, rolling boil. You can add vinegar or salt to the water, which might make peeling easier. Boil the eggs for a full minute, then turn off the heat. Let them sit undisturbed for 10-15 minutes. Run them under cold water to stop the cooking process. Peel and serve.
