Goals

I have a new goal for the year: learn how to properly boil an egg so the yolk isn't weird.

I like a fully cooked yolk with a tender white. Here's how I hard boil an egg.

1. Put the egg in cold (or room temp) water and turn on the heat, about medium to med-high.
2. Begin to time for 1 minute when it reaches a nice, rolling boil.
3. After 1 minute, turn off heat, cover pot, and let sit for 10 minutes.
4. Run under cold water, peel & eat.

Grandma Gaines's postmaster friend Ruth told me how to do this when I was in college. It works!

Thanks! Just tried it tonight--it worked perfectly! Now, excuse me, I've got a salad to enjoy.
