Cooking “hard boiled” eggs without water

Happy Easter!  I just cooked a lot of eggs without water to make our annual Easter breakfast.  I need perfectly cooked eggs to use to make the sauce and the grated yolks from.  Here’s how I did it.

1st, prepare the pan with very wet doubled paper towel lining the bottom of the 11″ stovetop skillet.

Next, lay all the uncooked eggs on the bottom of the pan, single layer.

Cover and start on medium heat and wait until the lid puffs out some moisture.  Turn to low and cook for 14 minutes.  When finished, immediately put into an ice bath meaning ice and water.

Next peel your beautiful eggs!  I just bought these 2 dozen eggs last night!

I had to separate the yolks from the whites, but I wanted to show you how beautiful they are.  They have a moister texture and better flavor than boiling.

I’ll post our picture of breakfast in the morning.  Hope you have a blessed Easter.   Did you know that hard boiled eggs and the tradition of egg rolling symbolize the boulders that rolled away in front of Jesus’ tomb?

Sprinkle with a little Paprika and voila!  Delish!

Notice the colorless beets from cooking in water.  Cooking your fresh veggies without water is easy and delicious!  I just pick the right size pan that fits the amount of veggies in it.  I rinse with water and drain it all off.  I always use my lid so it can catch the moisture and trap the natural juices in the pan.  Start your stove on medium to medium-low and wait until the lid will spin freely.  Turn to low and cook to desired doneness.
