Hard-boiled Eggs: Make It Simple

Julia Child has a recipe for perfect hard-boiled eggs. For years I've tried it, and for the life of me I cannot get it right. To make myself feel better I've come up with an excuse/explanation: the recipe's too complicated.

So, I've searched, and found this video from Real Simple. It's pretty much as simple as it gets, and I'm very pleased with the results:

Pore an inch of water into a large pot, place a steamer basket inside the pot, cover, bring the water to a boil on high heat. Add eggs to the basket, cover, cook for twelve minutes. Cool the eggs in ice water. 

All done!

Live for the Love of it,
