I have come to steam cook my eggs rather than boiling them. I use a kettle with a vegetable steam basket. Use just enough water to touch the bottom of the steam basket. Bring water to a boil and place eggs in the basket using tongs. Cover the kettle and steam for 15 minutes. Immediately plunge eggs into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Plunging into ice water also makes them easier to peel. I do this with fresh eggs right from my hens.
