Ingredients:
- Fresh eggs
- Water

Instructions:
1. Place the Eggs in a Saucepan:
  - Take a saucepan large enough to hold the number of eggs you want to cook in a single layer.
  - Gently place the eggs at the bottom of the saucepan.

2. Add Water:
  - Fill the saucepan with enough cold water to cover the eggs completely by about an inch.

3. Heat the Eggs:
  - Place the saucepan on the stove over medium heat and bring the water to a gentle boil.
  - You can add a pinch of salt to the water, although it's optional.

4. Simmer:
  - Once the water reaches a gentle boil, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for approximately 9-12 minutes for a fully cooked yolk.
  - Adjust the cooking time based on your preference for a softer or firmer yolk (9 minutes for a slightly soft center, 11-12 minutes for a fully set yolk).

5. Prepare an Ice Bath:
  - While the eggs are simmering, prepare a large bowl filled with ice water.

6. Cool and Peel:
  - As soon as the eggs are done cooking, transfer them to the ice water bath using a slotted spoon.
  - Let the eggs sit in the ice water for a few minutes to cool and stop the cooking process.
  - Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel the shell off carefully.
  - Rinse the peeled eggs under cool water to remove any residual shell fragments.

7. Serve or Store:
  - Your perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs are now ready to be enjoyed!
  - You can serve them immediately, season them with salt and pepper if desired, and enjoy them as a nutritious snack.
  - Alternatively, store the peeled hard-boiled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
