So, here's a fun tip I learned while watching a cooking show not too long ago. Boil potatoes and eggs at the same time in the same pot. Potatoes will take 15 minutes and eggs will take about 12 minutes to get to the perfect consistency. So, add your potatoes, then, three minutes later, add the eggs. Drain everything at the same time. This leaves you some extra space on your stovetop because you only use one burner. It also makes your life a little easier because you'll only have one pot to wash. And, as an extra perk, salted water actually makes hard boiled eggs easier to peel. So, you're doing yourself a favor by boiling them in the same pot as the potatoes.
