How do you boil eggs so the yolk doesn't turn green? |
[Edit] |
Answer
I don't know
Don't cook your eggs for longer than you have to and when they're finished cooking plunge them into cold water to stop the cooking process.
Begin with room temperature eggs, as soon as the water comes to a boil, remove from heat and cover, let stand for 18 - 20 minutes. Remove and put in cold water. This will prevent cracking, green yolk, and will result in a tender, not rubbery, white. I I got this process from a Sara Moulton show years ago and have been using it ever since. Also, for easier peeling, don't use super fresh eggs.
