Hard-boiled eggs

Put the eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water and set over high heat.

As soon as it just starts to bubble and the eggs dance, not boiling, turn off the heat, cover and leave 17 minutes without peeking.

Pour off the hot water, swirl the eggs in really cold water, then refill with cold water and leave until cool, maybe 20 minutes.

Peel under running water.
