    This was how I made my perfect hard boiled eggs (minus the salt–wish I’d known that) until I moved to the northern Andes of Ecuador. I’m at 7800 feet AND the eggs are a different “variety” than the ones I got in the States. So, I’ve been searching for a new perfect way to cook them and I found it. Of course, it requires that you have a pressure cooker, but for those who do, here it is: Put 1 c. water in the bottom of the pressure cooker. Put a vegetable steamer (or something similar) in. Add a single layer of eggs on top. Close it up and cook on low pressure for 5 minutes. Remove from heat source and let sit in the pan for another 5 minutes. Release any remaining pressure and plunge into ice water. They are perfect every time and I love how quick and easy they are. Of course if I were still in the States, I’d just be adding a little salt to the water and doing it your way. I hope someone finds this helpful.
