For Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs

Put the eggs in a pan filled with cold water. Put in 1/4 cup of salt. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and cover with lid. Set the timer for 10 minutes, not 9, not 11, 10 minutes! Drain add cold water to stop cooking. Crack eggs well. Put back in pan. Under warm water start to peel at the small end! That's it! PERFECT!
