Hard Boiled Eggs

What do you see??? 

Have you ever made hard boiled eggs and the yolks are a grey, ugly, color??? 

Do you know the grey is your fault??? 

Let me tell you a little secret about making hard boiled eggs...

1 - FRESH eggs. This might seem silly to some but did you know, store bought eggs are sometimes months old? The eggs I get are day (s) old. Farm fresh eggs have bright yolks and the the whites are thicker. The shells are even harder to crack. 

2 - ICE WATER - Boil the eggs for 15 minutes as soon as you are done plop the eggs in ice water helps keep the bright yellow color vs. the grey color (see above picture)

These are great for snacks, lunch and side. We love boiled eggs.
