How to hard boil eggs may seem an easy thing for most. But if you've never done it before, then what?
I've two ways to do this. Both work well to make sure the eggs are properly cooked, not tough, and without that greenish/black ring around the yolk.
It really is easy to get perfectly cooked hard boiled eggs every time. The interesting thing is that neither of these methods involve boiling the actual eggs!

The second way is to bake them. That's right. Bake them. No, they don't explode. (That was my first concern.)
