First, you’d need 12 eggs for this sumptuous meal. Place the eggs in a saucepan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Then add cold water that should cover the eggs by an inch. Heat them over high heat just to boiling, then remove from the burner and cover the pan.

Let the eggs stand in the pan for about nine minutes if the eggs are medium-sized. If they’re large, do so for 12 minutes, and if extra-large, 15 minutes. Then drain. Shock the eggs in a bowl of ice water to let them cool immediately. Then proceed peeling the eggs as soon as they’re completely cooled. Otherwise, store them in the fridge for up to one week in their shells.

A good way to adorn your hard-boiled meal is to sprinkle chives and pepper on top. Keep in mind that eggs in shells should not be microwaved; steam builds up too fast inside and you risk having the eggs explode.
