Notes
- Make sure your eggs are hard boiled. With medium or soft boiled eggs, you will struggle to remove the yolk from the center.
- If you aren't making these for a crowd, you can half the recipe or cut it into 1/3, etc.
- I like to use a food processor to produce finely chopped onions and cilantro.
- Place the eggs in a saucepan.
- Cover the eggs with cold water. Fill to the top of the eggs.
- Bring the saucepan to a boil.
- Once the water boils, remove the pan from the heat. Cover the pan.
- Allow the eggs to sit for 10 minutes.
- Remove the eggs and place them in an ice bath to cool for 10 minutes.
