1. Place desired number of eggs in medium saucepan; cover with cold water. Bring to a boil.* Reduce heat to low; simmer about 15 minutes for hard-cooked eggs or 7 minutes for soft-cooked eggs.
2. Immediately drain; run cold water over eggs to stop cooking.
3. Cut soft-cooked eggs in half, spoon out of shell.** Serve in egg cups, if desired. Peel hard-cooked eggs and use as desired.
TIPS: * If water boils hard, the egg white will toughen.
** Eggs a few days old are easier to remove from the shell than very fresh eggs. For ease in shelling hard-cooked eggs, crack and peel eggs under cold water, beginning at larger end.
