Tips How To Boil Easter Eggs Perfectly O ne of the most fun parts of Easter is coloring hard-boiled eggs. But it' s not always the easiest task. Even though it wou ld seem like you just drop the eggs in boiling water and cook them until they're hard, some eggs wi ll crack, making the she lls unusable as canvases.

Stink Like Sulfur Hard-bo iled eggs have an unmistakable odor. While it' s impossible to completely get rid of the sulfurous smell, there is a way to diminish it. 1.

Place the eggs in a pan just big enough to hold them in a sing le layer.

2.

Cover them with cold water and bring them to a rolling boil. Cook for one minute.

3. Make sure to bring the refrigerated eggs to room temperature before cooking, because cold eggs cooking in hot water will just increase the chance of cracks.

3. Remove them fi·om the heat. When the water has cooled e nough that you can put your hand in (about 20 minutes), the eggs wi ll be perfectly cooked.
