Perfect Boiled Eggs

Put the amount of eggs you want in a pot.  Bring to a boil, then let them sit in the water, covered by water and a lid, for 12 minutes.  You will have perfectly boiled eggs. 

Note:  I have only done this at sea-level.  I have yet to try it in high altitude.

Replacement

I found these recently and thought they would be useful to have on hand.


Egg replacements - 
decide whether the egg is for leavening (cakes, cupcakes, light and fluffy results) or binding (cookies, brownies, dense and thick results.)


For leavening to replace one egg -
1/4 cup applesauce; 1 medium mashed banana; 3 Tbs. pureed fruit


For binding to replace one egg -
2 Tbs. cornstarch plus 2 Tbs water
2 Tbs. potato starch plus 2 Tbs water
2 Tbs. instant mashed potatoes
Egg replacer (2 tsp. baking powder, 1 Tbs. water, 1 Tbs. oil; mix until well combined and gelatinous.)


1 can of diet soda can replace egg in cake.


Milk replacers-
Soy and coconut milk can replace milk in rich desserts
Almond and rice milk can replace milk in other recipes
