Preparation

Step 1

Eggs are one of the most versatile ingredients in the culinary world, yet one can easily make or break a recipe based on the treatment of this precious ingredient. You would think it’s as easy as 1-2-3 to fry or boil an egg, but think again. Even world-class chefs like Anthony Bourdain treat eggs with such respect that they actually have recipes on how to make hard-boiled eggs. In the Les Halles Cookbook, by Bourdain himself, he has a recipe on how to cook the “perfect hard-boiled egg.” It goes something like this…

2 - Add enough cold tap water to cover the eggs by two inches.

3 - Bring the water to a rapid boil, uncovered.

4 - As soon as the water boils shut off the heat and cover the pan.
