JAN'S HARD BOILED EGGS - So Easy

Bring a pan of water, deep enough to cover as many eggs as you want to cook, to a boil.  Reduce to medium boil.  Gently put eggs in the pan.  Simmer 12-13 minutes.  Make sure they remain simmering...increase heat if needed.  While the eggs are simmering, prepare a bowl or another pan for an ice bath for the eggs.  ICE BATH:  Fill large bowl or pan 1/4 with very cold water and add some ice. Remove from heat and plunge the eggs into an ice bath adding water or ice to cover the eggs...for 5 minutes.  Remove from water and refrigerate for about 1/2 hour before peeling.  The eggs peel much easier than any other way I've ever made them.
