Hello how may I help you? Hi, I need some help with cooking since I'm really bad in the kitchen Sure, I can help you out. What are you trying to cook? I'd like to learn how to make a hard boiled egg. Can you walk me through it? Of course I can! First get a medium pot of water boiling. Ok, so how many cups of water should I put in the pot? About 6 cups, or enough to fill the pot two thirds of the way. Easy enough, and then I put it on the stove, and what temperature should I set it at? Just until it's boiling, about 212 degrees. I guess that's just putting it on high... Ok, I've done this, and the water's boiling Now what should I do Drop the eggs into the pot of boiling water, but slowly and carefully. You don't want to splash boiling water on yourself. I'm kinda worried, it seems like I could easily burn myself, how can I get them into the water without splashing? A good trick is to use a large spoon to lower the eggs in one by one. Oh, that's a good idea! Ok, I've gotten the eggs into the water, they're boiling. Cover the pot and then turn off the heat. Be careful not to get burned by the hot steam above the pot! I've covered it, and turned off the burner. Are they done? You need to wait 12 minutes, set a timer if you have one. Alright, I've set my phone timer for 12 mins After that, dump them into a colander in your sink and run cool water over them to stop them from cooking. Be careful, the eggs will be very hot! Sounds easy enough, just let them sit then drain, got it! Once they are cool you can peel the shells and eat them! Great, thanks for the help! No problem.
