Directions

Step 1
1. Place a steamer insert into a pot and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. 2. Bring the water to just below a boil over medium heat. 3. Gently place the eggs in the steamer insert, cover the pot, and steam for 15 minutes. 4. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water until they are cool enough to handle. 5. Make a small crack on the large end of each egg and place the eggs back into the ice water for about 20 minutes. 6. Peel the eggs.
