I was hoping to learn the best way to boil an egg. Many years ago my dad found an article about how to boil eggs so they won't crack (for making Easter eggs). It worked!! We have since lost the article -- probably filed away among the thousands of articles my mom saved over the years -- and now we no longer dye Easter eggs.#2: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Mar 2, 2019
That was the trick that I had learned then shared here. Those comments were lost. And I forgot the trick. I'll see if I can find it and post it here.#3: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Mar 4, 2019 [SPOILER]
