Dear Cooks:
On her show last week, Rachael explained how to cook hard boil eggs so they will crack easily. She said to put eggs in cold water and heat until the water comes to a boil, then turn off stove and let the eggs sit in the pan covered. I cant remember how long they were to sit and what you did after that - can you help?
Thanks,
Egg Lover
Dear EL:

Follow these steps and you will have fool proof, easy to peel hard boiled eggs every time:
1) Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch.
2) Bring water just to a boil, then cover pan and remove from the heat.
3) Let eggs sit in covered pan of water for ten minutes, then drain and rinse in cool water until eggs are cool to the touch.
4) Peel under cold water.
5) Enjoy!

I just happened to read your blog. I have found that the easiest way to cook and peel hard boiled eggs is to cook them in my vegetable steemer for about 23 minutes. Then when you start to peel them, run the cracked egg under the faucet to start. They always peel easy.

After you boil the eggs..cracked all the eggshells but don’t peel, just put them back in pot and cover in cold water and let them sit for awhile.
The water will seep in through all the cracks and make peeling them easy peasy! Try it ..it works great every time.

I am looking for the recipe using Chicken Cutlets from the Grandma & Granddaughter that was on Friday’s show 2/10/12. I segment was something like “Grannies at the Grammies” I believe or something along that line.

Hey Rach have you ever been to Jamaica? Do you like their food. I constantly kept tasting a spice that I am not familiar with and didn’t care for. Do your know what it was.?

Hi Rachel,
I would love a recipr or two for veal cutlets. Right now I’m on a very strict regime and CAN NOT use any oils. Herbs are fine. What I’ve been doing is wrapping my 3 1/2 oz piece of meat in foil & baking it at 350 degrees. I tried the pan, with a little water, but these cutlets are the leaniest piece of meat and thin so as a result they can and oftet do overcook. I’m working on it, but veal is so expensive that I won’t throw any of it away. I can not have any sauces or combine vergtables and those are limited as well. I can have as much garlic as I want. I have used fresh wilted spinach once, another time basil - after I baked it. (all from my little garden - yum) Please feel free to suggest temperature, cooking time anything else you deem important or exciting. Thank you Rach!

Have a little of your cookware, always wanting more of course, but not in the budget right now.
