Step 1: Boil the Eggs
Place the eggs in a pot: Arrange your eggs in a single layer in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the eggs by about an inch. Starting with cold water helps ensure the eggs cook evenly.
Bring to a boil: Place the pot on the stove and bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat slightly to maintain a gentle boil.
