I love how people have no problem getting snarky (um, katnissK…cough, cough)when they have a computer and a fake name to hide behind. Apparently she has never heard of Martha Stewart either since the woman made an empire largely based on ingenious little tips like this one. I think it’s a great tip and will use it for sure!

Roni,

Don’t stoop to their level. Just ignore it if you can. We love your blog and keep coming back for inspiration and ideas.

Blessings,
Melissa

Dear Katniss. Congratulations on your prowess in the kitchen. Many aren’t as blessed. But I pity you your ignorance and narrow mind. Only a small little human could sling such unnecessary hatred. My condolences.

It would have been just as easy for katnissK to close out of your post if she knew so much about hard-boiling eggs. The fact that she had to leave such a mean and insulting message is a testament to how truly angry and unhappy she is.

We now use the “roni” method after trying to find a good way to make them. They now turn out perfect every time. Thanks Roni!

Fortunately for us, most of the world has more sense and better manners than katnissK. Get some class!

Katnissk – I am not sure what world you are living in where it is socially acceptable to say the “r” word you referred in your comment. That word is offensive, ignorant, and political incorrect.

I understand that boiling an egg must seem like such common sense thing for your astute mind to handle. So I have a suggestion for you, why don’t you learn to comment and give your opinion WITHOUT using offensive language in an attempt to hurt others. People with mental disabilities should never be used as hateful retoric. This rule should also apply to homosexuals, all races, religions, social class, or intelligence levels. I trust you already knew this given your large grasp on our gender and the important role we have as women to teach our children about tolerance and acceptance. I hope that the next time you use the “r” word so cavalierily you think about the implecation of the word and how hurtful it can be.

Roni – I for one want to thank you for teaching me an EGGCELENT way to make hard boiled eggs. Sure, I had made hard boiled eggs in the past, but nothing works as good as your method. I will forever be thankful for you!!

katnissK is probably just mad because she/maybe he lives in a world where only ONE gender can make hard boiled eggs. Silly katnissK, stop being such an @sshole.

I admit it. I can’t seem to boil eggs. I’ve tried vinegar, the egg timer and the little plastic thing that changes color in the water. I guess I am ‘retarded’ as you say. There are worse things I could be I guess, like angry, bitter and nasty to other people. I’ll stick with ‘retarded’.

katnissK, what are you doing here if you know it all? I feel sorry for anyone that has to be around you every day, because obviously you are a jerk. And really, using the word retarted? Wow. Nice. Go away.

Given that this post is now 3 years old and she finds it now someone was searching on how to boil an egg. When finding how easy it was she felt the need to insult others. Then when she found out that she couldn’t preform the simple task she really felt the need to attack Roni. This form of conduct is HILARIOUS!

Thank you Roni for helping all of us “retards” out there learn to better take care of our families.

KatnissK- You really felt compelled to leave a comment on how ridiculous you thought this post was? If it’s so aweful why are you spending your precious time reading/watching it? Maybe with all the knowledge you apparently have you would know that the word “retarded” is far from classy and extremely offensive. Unfortunatly for you they don’t have classes that teach common sense…..

Im pretty sure that I have googled how to hard boil eggs an insane amount of times in my life so I appreciate this post!!! Move on if your such an expertise!

Hey katnissK… just admit you didn’t know how to make a hard boiled egg and move on. It’s obvious you’re trying to cover it up by sounding like a self-righteous troll.

We bow down to your culinary expertise, katnissK. Us “retards” (could that be more insulting? Pretty much shows how ignorant you are) will continue to share our tips and teach each other things we may not have had the privilege of learning in our pathetic little lives.

Carry on living your perfect life where no one is allowed to ask a question or offer a new approach to do things. I’m sure you are quite happy there in jerksville.

Is everyone retarded? Really you had to come to a website to learn how to hardboil an egg? Our gender is DOOMED! (And why on earth would one admit to not knowing how to hardboil an EGG?) REALLY? REALLY? Well, thank GOD this site is here for all the airheads out there.

Just tried your method and it was wonderful… after years of using the cold water method and struggling to peel the eggs and tearing up the whites, this was so easy and perfect yolks!! Again I learn something that I will use alot in the kitchen from you Roni!! Thanks again!!! Love your website!!

By: roni

roni — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 18:41:25 +0000

That’s my moms method. It never works for me. I’m not sure why but the peels always stick and I only ever peel straight from the fridge.

By: Rachel

Rachel — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 18:38:52 +0000

Roni,
Even easier is to put the eggs in cold water, and turn off the heat just after the water starts boiling. This also prevents overcooking and the green yolks. Just let the eggs stay there in the water until the water is room temp, and they should be easy to peel this way, as well. When I’m in a hurry and I can’t wait for the eggs to cool naturally, but I still want an “easy peel”, I just stick them in the fridge or freezer before peeling.

I would like to suggest to you instead of using a slotted spoon to put your eggs in and out of the water that you use a set of canning tongs, much quicker and no slippage

I had no idea either about boiling the water first!

Definitely going to try it. My mom always run the egg under cold water right after cooking. I like the ice water idea to work with a batch of eggs.

Great idea!

Thank you for the tip. I can never get my eggs to boil right. They always end up under or over cooked but never right. I’m Going to try these technique tomorrow. Hopefully they come out right.
