How to cook an egg so that the eggshell does not crack?

The eggs should not peek out of the water and should not have room to dance.
The eggs should not peek out of the water and should not have room to dance.

For Easter eggs, use those eggs that you already had before several days in the refrigerator, and let them warm up to room temperature before cooking. The following advice is banal, but many people overlook it. Fill the bowl with eggs as that there will not be much space between them, as this means that the eggs will not have room to bounce around during cooking and thus have the possibility of cracking. After you have arranged them tightly, pour water over them (the eggs should be completely hidden and should be at least three centimeters above the water level) and add apple cider vinegar (about a teaspoon per egg: otherwise, this prevents the white from pouring out during cooking if cracks appear). Wait for it to boil, reduce the heat/heat level and cook some more eight minutes. And your eggs will be whole and ready to be dyed.
