Is indeed.
Piercing a tiny hole in the rounder end when hard boiling. Will give a perfectly shaped egg as well as Making shell removal easy.

Sprinkle some table salt into the water before it boils to prevent the egg from cracking.

If an egg floats in a saucepan it's a sign that its rotten inside. Hard boiled eggs 'spin' like a top. An uncooked egg can't spin. Always crack poached eggs into swirling water, it keeps them together. Adding salt to the water doesn't stop an egg from cracking but it does prevent a cracked egg from leaking into the water. An average of one in a thousand eggs has a double yolk ...

3 minutes from boiling and you got the perfect egg

Never keep your eggs in the fridge to cook them properly. Vinger prevent the egg from leaking into the water if shell is cracked too

That's not quite true Jimmy. Ya see, it's depends on the temp of the water. The colder it is to start then the longer it takes to cook.

That's true. Eggs aren't supposed to be fridgerated.

It also depends on the type of egg. A hen's egg will boil in a few minutes whereas an Easter egg will melt in no time at all
