Hard-boiled eggs?

Question

I am boiling 9 eggs right now and was wondering when do I know when they are done boiling? Thanks!

Answer 1

You should cover eggs in the pot with cold water, bring that to a boil, cover the pot and take it off the heat and let it set for 16 minutes...perfect hard boiled eggs.

Answer 2

Start with eggs in pot, cover with cold water. Bring to a boil. Once it hits a boil time 5 minutes. After 5 minutes of a hard boil let sit in water as it gradually cools for a few hours. If they are extra large eggs you can let the boil go for 6 minutes. Any longer and they will crack and explode.

Answer 3

10 minutes from the time the water starts to boil hard. Keep it at a hard boil:-)
