The reason for this is that you want the eggs to come up to temperature gradually with the water, allowing the air in the eggs to escape slowly. <BR/><BR/>Putting cold eggs into boiling water causes the air to rush to escape, cracking the shell. The extreme temperature change also causes the shell to crack.<BR/><BR/>Another tip I've heard (but haven't successfully mastered) is that you can get the yolk more centered if you gently stir the eggs in the water while it's heating.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203651916920018412.post-86226437070778371332008-08-28T00:25:00.000-04:002008-08-28T00:25:00.000-04:00This DOES work - that's how I learned it, too!
