Place eggs in pot of water. Bring water to boil. When water starts boiling turn temperature down slightly to avoid the eggs cracking. Cook for 15 minutes. At the end of 15 minutes remove eggs from heat and start replacing the hot water with cold a little at a time. Peel cooled eggs under running water as soon ass they are cool enough to handle easily.
