If you need easy-to-peel eggs and you have fresh eggs, you might want to try steaming the eggs for 15 minutes. Pour an inch of water into a pot and insert a steamer basket.Bring to a boil. Place the eggs in the steamer basket, cover and steam for 15 minutes (more or less, check!).
1 Remove the boiled eggs from the water and transfer them to a bowl of cold water for 15 minutes to stop the cooking process. 2  Then either peel and serve or refrigerate. Place the eggs in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and cover them with cold water. 2  Make sure the tops of the eggs are covered by at least an inch of water. 3  How much water will depend on the size of the pot, but in general, a bigger pot is better. 4  Crowding the eggs risks cracking them. 5  Bring the water to a full boil, uncovered.
