Just in case someone wasn't sure how to do this....
Place eggs into saucepan and then fill with water until the water is over the height of the eggs.
Place saucepan on stove, high heat until water boils.
Reduce heat for a soft boil.
Boil for 10 minutes.
Turn heat off and let the eggs sit in the water until the water is cooled (about 20 minutes). Drain the water and store eggs in the refrigerator.
This method will get you hard boiled eggs with the least amount of shell cracking. If you set the eggs in the already boiling water, often times the shell with expand and crack...or they will crack when they hit the bottom of the pan. It's easiest to add the eggs at the beginning.
