Notes

This recipe starts with eggs already being hard boiled.  The method I used for easily peeled eggs I learned from America’s Test Kitchen.  Add eggs to boiling water. Reduce heat to low medium. Cover. Cook for 12 min. Transfer eggs to ice water bath using spider kitchen tool. Sit for a few minutes then place eggs in a container that has a top. I used a small rectangle take away container adding a few eggs at a time. Add cold water to cover eggs halfway. Cover. Shake for 5 seconds so eggs hit top and bottom releasing the shell. Peel!
