HOW TO BOIL AN EGG

 
 
Eggs are a rich source of protein and vitamins and are generally healthy to eat, unless you have a high cholesterol level.
You can eat eggs raw, boiled or cooked in a pan as scrambled eggs or an omelet. Boiling eggs is one of the easiest ways to prepare them; here's how: 

INSTRUCTIONS:                                                                     Difficulty Level:    EASY

1.  In a large saucepan; place about 12 eggs (or 1 dozen).
2.  Run cold water into the saucepan until the water is 1-inch above the eggs.
3.  Place the saucepan on stove and cook over medium heat until the water in the saucepan begins to boil.
4.  Reduce the heat to low.
5.  Simmer 2 to 3 minutes for soft-boiled eggs; and 10 to 15 minutes for hard boiled eggs. 
6.  Carefully remove the egg with a spoon and/or laddle, letting it cool slowly and/or run it under cold water for it to cool more quickly!  

Enjoy!
