📝 Preparation Steps
1
Boil
2
Gently place 10 large eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a medium pot – make sure they're not crowded. Fill with cold water to cover eggs by 1-2 inches. Heat the pot on high and bring the water to a rolling boil. Once it starts boiling, turn off the heat, remove the pan from the burner, cover, and let sit for ⏱️ 12 minutes.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to a large bowl filled with water and ice and let cool for ⏱️ 10 minutes. (This will cool them quickly and prevent further cooking, plus make them easier to peel.)

The eggs can be eaten after only a few hours of marinating, but for best results allow them to pickle for a couple days. Use as desired. They're great for snacking or cut up in salads!
