Cover eggs with lukewarm water in saucepan. Heat just until water boils. Remove from heat and cover, let stand just 15-18 minutes. Set saucepan in sink and run cold water to cool eggs quickly. This makes the eggs easier to shell and keeps yolks from turning dark around the edges.
Note: To shell hard-cooked eggs, tap to crack shell. Roll between the hands to loosen shell. Hold under cold water as you peel the shell.
