The only way I make hard boiled eggs is in my Instant Pot using the 5-5-5 method. What the heck is the 5-5-5 method you ask? Super simple and easy to remember, 5 Minutes High Pressure, 5 Minute Natural Pressure Release and 5 Minutes in an Ice Water Bath – after that you get perfectly cooked, easy to peel eggs.
