Just made a batch of what I lovingly refer to as "Mom Eggs", a recipe I learned from my own Mommy over the years :)

    WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
  • 8 to 12 Eggs
  • Half Gallon of Tap Water
  • Big Pot
  • Stove

STEP 1 - Put your eggs in your pot (being careful to not break them) and cover them with your half-gallon of water. Put on stove and turn the corresponding burner control to "High".

STEP 2 - Go do something that should only take a few minutes, but leads you to doing something else which then reminds you that you really need to do this other thing as well.

STEP 3 - Sniff the air and say "Is something burning?" and go to the kitchen to see if maybe you left a burner on or something.

STEP 4 - Discover the red-hot pan full of hard-boiled eggs that all the water had evaporated from.

STEP 5 - Nonchalantly say "Oh! Eggs are done!" and turn off the burner.

STEP 6 - Remove pan from the hot burner and move it to a cold back burner. Leave there for 4 to 6 hours, or till the pan and eggs are cool to the touch, or till you remember that you really wanted to eat a hard boiled egg.

They taste an awful lot like hard boiled eggs.
