Recipe: Hard Boiled Egg

If ABC is for kids, then learning to cook an egg is for newbie cooks!  I have to start somewhere and I know that egg is the basic ingredient in anyone’s kitchen.  So here I am, learning to prepare one of the easiest ways to cook egg and that’s hard-boiled egg.  Maybe, after I finish this, I can start to cook sunny side up egg 😛

I got inspiration on this recipe from WikiHow.  I loved how detailed the steps were that I ended up cooking a decent, edible egg!  Yipee!

Ingredients

1. Eggs
2. Water
3. Salt

Instructions

1. Place the eggs gently in an empty pot. You have to be careful in placing them to prevent them from breaking.
2. Fill the pot with cold (take note) water until it fully cover the eggs.
3. Place a lil bit of salt into the water. This helps us peel the eggs easier afterwards.
4. Cook the eggs in medium heat.
5. Cover the pot.
6. Slightly shake the eggs in the pot. It helps the yolks to be centered. (I do not know if this really works but I did it anyway and my egg yolks turned out to be in the center).
7. As soon as the water boils, turn off the heat.
8. Leave the eggs in the hot water for ten minutes.
9. Whirl the egg on the table to check if the egg is already hard boiled. If it whirls fast, then it’s cooked.
10. Chill the eggs by putting them on ice cold water.
11. Roll egg on flat surface to crack the shell.
12. Peel the eggs under running water. Make sure that you also remove the membrane so that it peels easily.
13. enjoy the hard boiled eggs!

Believe it or not, this was actually my first attempt to cook hard boiled egg.  I know I’ve been posting a lot of simple recipes these days.  I’m serious in trying to learn how to cook so please bear with me.  I hope my entries can help some newbie cooks as well.  As I progress, my recipes will be harder hehe 🙂
