Sharon A I do them this way, too. Only, I've never timed them. I just wait till the water is cool enough for me to handle the eggs. But, yeah, perfect eggs every time. I usually boil 1/2 dozen on Sunday night for work snacks throughout the week. NOM.

Alis Priebe That's how I do it too, BUT we only buy cage-free eggs and they are never easy to peel, no matter if they are super fresh or just about to go bad.

I've needed this!

Alton Brown method of hard-cooking eggs. Alton says this provides a creamier egg than steaming or boiling.

Colleen H. Whoa! I would so worry about an egg exploding, and I would have no idea how to clean that out of my oven. I was expecting Alton to suggest poking a hole the shell, but he doesn't.

Unsticky Measuring Cups: Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup, fill with hot water. Dump out the hot water, but don’t dry cup. Next, add your ingredient, such as peanut butter, and watch how easily it comes right out. Worth a try.

Heat up leftover pizza in a nonstick skillet on top of the stove: Set heat to med-low and heat till warm. This keeps the crust crispy! No soggy microwave pizza.

TIP FOR KEEPING BERRIES FROM GOING MOLDY!! When you get your berries home, prepare a mixture of one part vinegar (white or apple cider probably work best) and ten parts water. Dump the berries into the mixture and swirl around. Drain, rinse if you want (though the mixture is so diluted I find you can't taste the vinegar,) and pop in the fridge. The vinegar kills any mold spores and other bacteria that might be on the surface of the fruit, and voila! Raspberries will last a week or more, and I've had strawberries go almost two weeks without getting moldy and soft.

Ziplock Bag as Soup Saver. Stockpile soup by pouring extra portions into baggies, then laying them flat in the freezer. Once hardened, you can stack them up and save them for a rainy day.

The "miracle" of baking soda and peroxide. Put 1/4 cup of baking soda in a bowl.....add enough peroxide to make a paste. Rub on with fingers or sponge. Cleans EVERYTHING! Stove, oven, pans, stainless steel applicances, even the white handles of the refrig door.
