Knowledge

There are some simple things that can be surprisingly hard to do well. Everyone assumes that you can do it because you're an intelligent person and it's a simple thing, after all. Thanks to the World Wide Web (and Google), one can ferret out these useful little nuggets. So to make the world a better place, I would like to share the recipe for perfect hard-boiled eggs, thanks to the Food Network.

  1. Place eggs in a pot of cold water. Add salt.
  2. Bring water to a boil.
  3. As soon as the water is boiling, remove the pot from the heat. Cover and let it sit.
  4. After 13 minutes, remove the eggs from the pot and place them into an ice water bath to stop the cooking.

Walla!
