Nothing amazing, but it's my first time making it. I usually only buy frozen or sometimes make stuff I can eat in one or two servings because I'm worried I'll forget about the food and/or the ingredients and they'll go bad.
But I'm taking care of my mom's chickens and ducks for a month, and I have too many eggs, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to make stuff I haven't made before.
Since I have more eggs than I know what to do with, if I mess up or make too much or forgot to eat it all, it doesn't feel as wasteful. No fuel burned transporting the eggs either!
I was gonna post this in /c/food, but this is more about trying things I'm normally scared to try due to autism and adhd, as described above.
Also peeling the boiled eggs was a pain and I'm 100% sure I did it wrong.
Weird, the recipe I followed had me put them in cold water, bring them to a boil and immediately turn off the heat and let them sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. It was definitely hard boiled though (which I wanted, I haven't tried soft boiled and idk if I'd like it) despite sounding like I cooked it less than you do. You leave it boiling the whole time?
The trick to eggs (at least chicken eggs) is to shock them with cold water right after they're done cooking. Have a bowl of ice water ready and transfer them right after you drain the hot water out and let them sit.
Supposedly it makes the membrane less sticky to the shell or something, idk what but it works.
