Eggs (boiled)

[bkymnro]

When I boil eggs, the yolk turns green around the outside. Is there a way to avoid this?

Reduce the cooking time. I put eggs in cold water, bring to boil, boil about 3 minutes, let sit for 15, then cool in cold water.

Promptly chill eggs in ICE WATER until chilled so yolks stay bright yellow...keep adding ice as necessary....rapid chilling helps prevent the "greenish" ring to appear around the yolk.
