Answers:
Boiling an egg doesn’t need to be difficult. Just follow these four easy steps:
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. The water level should be about an inch above the eggs.
Bring water to a boil; immediately turn off heat. (Don’t let the eggs continue to boil. Sulfur compounds in the yolk turn an ugly shade of green when eggs are exposed to high heat.)
Cover the pan; let eggs stand in the hot water for 14 minutes (small eggs) to 17 minutes (extra large eggs).
Drain eggs and cool in bowl of ice water. Refrigerate hard-boiled eggs for up to>------------------------------...

10 minutes, you should be able to tell by the feel when they are done. They get heavier.

i put them in before the water boils and then boil for about 12 minutes. bring the water to a boil, put the eggs in, turn off the burner, let the whole mess sit for 15 minutes and you're done

cover with cold water, bring to a boil, boil for 9 mins. turn off heat and let cool.

there done when they start floating

boil your water then put your eggs in carefully so you don't break them i use a big spoon to put mine in after you put your last egg in time it 20 minutes if you time them 20 minutes they will be done http://www.goodegg.com/boiledegg.html

5-7 minutes okay but check website out....

i boil them for no more than 20 mins. if they crack and no juice comes running out then they are done. de-shell them under running cold water. 30 min

Put eggs in pot with water an inch above the eggs. Bring the water to a boil and set the timer for 5 minutes. After the timer goes off turn off the burner and let the eggs sit for another five minutes then rinse in cool water. No fail hardboiled eggs. My uncle taught me this and I've used it for many years. Very simple.

Place the amount of eggs you want to make in a pan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, and when the water just boils, set a timer for 3 minutes. When the timer goes off, turn off the heat and set timer for 10 minutes. When that timer goes off, drain your eggs, and place them in ICE water to stop the cooking. They come out perfect every time.

For best results, you don't boil eggs. Cover them with cold water, bring to a boil, turn off heat, cover and let sit for 20-25 minutes. Perfect eggs! For large eggs: Place eggs in saucepan and cover them an inch with cool water. Put gas on high and when they start to boil, time them for 6 minutes. Turn off the gas and let sit for 10 minutes. Eggs will be perfect and not black around the edges. For extra large eggs, boil for 7 minutes.

There is a sure-fire way to check if eggs are hardboiled...
when you spin it around, if its still wobbly -- its NOT done
if it spins around steadily -- Its DONE! :)

There are plenty of correct answers here. But one tip, after cooking, put the eggs in cold water or ice bath. This will keep th yolks from turing greyish green. Only for about 10 minutes and when you open them they shouldn't have any gray stuff in the yolk and the yolk should be hardish yet mushy!...if you know what I mean.

Place eggs in pot, cover them with cool water add salt( to quicken the process) Bring water to a boil, then drop temperature on range to a simmer. Simmer eggs for 9 minutes. They will be perfect. Drain eggs and place them in ice water to shock the eggs, it will be easier to peel the eggs.
The eggs will be cooked after 9 minutes that's how you know they are done. The best way to do it is to let the water come to a full boil then put a lid on the pan and leave it covered for 20 min. After that it is done. Put some salt in the water too, that way the shells come off easier.
