Boiled Eggs

Boiled Eggs




When boiling eggs and you notice a crack forming in the shell as it cooks, simply pull the egg out of the water with a slotted spoon and throughly coat the crack in salt. Let the salt sit for a minute then add the egg back to the boiling water.  The salt will seal up most cracks that form after cooking has begun.


Or to prevent the cracks in the first place add a few Tablespoons of white vinegar to the water.




When making deviled eggs do not over crowd the pan. Leave room to stir the eggs around while cooking.  If you gently stir the eggs while they cook the yolk with form in the center for an attractive uniform base for the deviled eggs.





When poaching eggs add a Tablespoon of white vinegar to the water and the eggs will stay formed better.  Cook as usual.
