We all know that boiling an egg isn’t rocket science – boil the water in a pot, put your egg in (gently!) and then take it out after a few minutes, right?

For perfect results you may also want to consider the size of the eggs to be boiled.

When hard-cooking eggs, using fresh eggs isn’t recommended as they are difficult to peel so eggs that are coming close to their ‘best before’ date will peel most easily.

Should you start boiled eggs in hot or cold water?

So, do you put the eggs in the water once it’s already boiling, or do you put it in cold water, and then bring it to the boil? There’s a lot of debate about this, as some people tend to do it their way, but the consensus seems to point towards boiling the water first, instead of starting off cold. This may be down to the slowly warming water causing the membrane to stick to the shell, which makes peeling more difficult. One thing we will say, is when lowering the egg into the pot, be careful or the egg will crack!

The tiny western Pacific island of Guam is known mainly for its U.S. military outpost; but it’s also far and away the world’s largest consumer of Spam. After the majority of the U.S. military force that occupied Guam during World War II left, the canned, preserved meat the soldiers ate stayed put. Today, Guam consumes more than 16 cans of Spam per person, per year — more than any other country or territory. In Guam, the salted pork shoulder in a can is central to local culture, with dozens of indigenous recipes calling for Spam. But Guam’s Spam addiction might be doing more physical harm than culinary good: according to one study, 60% of deaths on the island of 150,000 are blamed on poor diet and lifestyle.
