**5 stars** This is a great recipe for hard-boiled eggs. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the shells were easy to peel.

I tried this recipe and the eggs were overcooked. I followed the directions exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've been making hard-boiled eggs this way for years and they always come out perfect. I love that I can cook a dozen eggs at once and they're all done in about 12 minutes. The shells are easy to peel and the eggs are always cooked evenly.
