The BEST tip I ever got from Blogland! (so far...)

Hi everyone-Merry Christmas! I think Deviled Eggs are a great side dish and are fun on a relish tray. But for years I've cursed having to peel them! The shell always stuck and the whites got all dinged up. Well at Easter one great lady posted this fantastic-NO FAIL-technique for perfect hard boiled eggs. Unfortunately I was new to blogging did not copy the name of her blog, *head hanging in shame*. I have shared this with others and all have had success, so, I'd like to share it with you!
Look at how pretty, "Mr. Demille, I'm ready for my close up"...
Directions:
  1. Boil enough water in a big enough pot to cover the amount of eggs you want to make. 
  2. Carefully add the eggs to the boiling water one by one with a big spoon. (They will not crack.)
  3. Reduce the heat just a bit, you still want the water boiling but not crazy. I use #7 on my electric stove.
  4. Boil for 15 minutes.
  5. Drain hot water, and cover eggs with cold water. I pour the cold water off a couple times. 
  6. Drain water and refrigerate until ready to peel. Peel under running cold water and make your Deviled Eggs.
This is a simple tip but really makes life a lot easier!
May your days be merry and bright, and your Deviled Eggs not look a fright:@)
