How to Boil an Egg

I like hard boiled eggs - not green and not slimy, but just so! There are many techniques to get the perfect hard boiled egg, but this one seems to work for me.

How to Boil an Egg
Bring a little pot of water to a boil. On the flat side of the (cold) egg poke a little hole with a fork. Gently lower the eggs onto the boiling water. Make sure the eggs are covered by the water and set your timer to 5 minutes. After 5 minutes turn off the heat and set your timer for another 5 minutes. Immediately rinse the eggs under cold water. Done.
