Wed Aug 16 16:43:09 -0700 2006 13002 Glenn J 1 1813477 I hard cook, chill well and peel and place in a tightly covered container. They have lasted almost 2 weeks that way.

Never kept 'em longer, they're too easy to eat while commuting or to turn into egg salad.

To boil them, put them in a pot of cold water. over high heat, bring them up to a boil. as soon as the water is rolling, cover them and remove from the fire. set a timer for 7 minutes, and when it goes off, run cold water over them for at least half an hour. peeling under water helps a lot, too.

I fill a bowl of cold water, throw in some ice cubes, peel quickly under that water and immediately put them in the refrigerator. Works well. Thu Aug 17 11:51:09 -0700 2006 1814007 10231 mirage
