Step away from the saucepan.

😕
 
Well my family (grandparents, mother, sister) always done it the way i posted above. Throw an egg on than wait for like 1 hour and chop it than throw it in the tuna. Comes out good.
 
1 hour? Way too long

I put them in cold water, turn up the heat and once the water boils, set the heat to low for 20 minutes. Done.

An hour? Are you on crack? Boil some water, place eggs inside and cover pot for 13 minutes. Take out and place in an ice bath for 1-2 minutes. Easy hard-boiled egg.
 
Put in a dozen eggs. Take one out each minute until you find one that's done. Count the number of eggs still in the pot and subtract it from 12 and you now have the number of minutes it takes to hard boil an egg.

an hour is way too long. submerge em in boiling water for 12 minutes, remove em and put them in cold water. done.
 
Okay, my mother just corrected me. She does it for 20-30 minutes. I guess only me and sister do it for 1 hour because where lazy and stuck to the computer =]
 
I only eat eggs in tuna... otherwise its nasty.

But its 6:28 and my eggs are still boiling. =] Anyone hungry?

Your family has good teeth.

 
13 mins may be cutting it too short and may produce half/soft boiled eggs (hard whites with deliciously chewy yolks).

While that is tasty in itself, if you want it full boiled, do a nice 20 mins.
