Look its Easter and I want to boil some eggs. But they never come out right... they crack, they're too hard, too soft, etc.. What's the right way to do it? Any cooks out there?

"Recipe for Hard Cooked Eggs: Place eggs in single layer in large pot. Fill pot with cold water to cover eggs by one-inch. Set over medium-high heat and bring the water just to a boil. Turn off the heat and let eggs remain in the water for 12 minutes. Plunge eggs into ice cold water. When cool, drain and refrigerate until ready to peel. "
I just let them boil on high for 10 minutes, or a bit less than however long it takes the egg to crack. You'll have to sacrifice an egg or two to figure out when this is.
man boiling eggs couldn't be simpler... just put cold water and eggs in pot, make sur ethe eggs are submerged, put in a little salt (think it helps with the cracking but not sure) and bring to a boil, then keep boiling it for 7-9 minutes depending on whether you want it to be throughly cooked or not. once its done, pour out the water and put in cold water wait half a minute and its' all done.
Yeah. And when you put potatos in the microwave, you don't have to poke them with anything before doing so and setting the clock for six minutes.
Throw it at someone and watch the following emotions register on their face:
1) He just threw an egg at me!
2) Wait, the egg didn't break?!?!?!
3) He just threw a hard boiled egg at me!
4) That hurt!
5) KILL

Make sure you take the eggs right out of the fridge and drop them into boiling water . . .
Get cracking before you chicken out!
I guess the yolk is on me. . . . . eggactly wrong.

Can microwaves produce a hard-boiled egg? I've seen the infomercials for the microwaved egg cookers, but I don't remember if they produced a hard-boiled-like egg with it.

Yes folks, he's here all week!!!
baking eggs make them hard to peel, somehow they dry out thru their waterproof shells...
and NEVER use microwave, it'll explode... taking the microwave with it

Go to the hardware store and buy a butane torch. Take it into the room with a stove and sink which is commonly called the kitchen. Open the bag of bread and, by the process of magical heat, transform the bread into toast. Lite the butane torch and use a fork to hold the piece of bread over the flame. You can make Evil toast by holding the flame in the center of the toast so a carbonized hole is formed. Anyway, once the bread is nicely browned you have toast!
You can achieve the same affect by merely leaving pieces of bread out on the counter or floor in the kitchen. After a day or two they will become dry and brittle just like toast! This is known as poor man's toast.
