I've gone a little nuts over my new Fagor pressure cooker and I'm constantly on the look out for
new recipes to cook things in it. Honestly, I wake up in the morning and think
"What can I cook in my pressure cooker?"
Really, I do!
I saw that Food Storage Moms made hard boiled eggs in her pressure cooker. Seriously?
I had to try it of course. No need to watch the eggs? That's my kind of cooking!
Add eggs and one cup water (a must to create the needed steam.)
Set the timer for 18 minutes on high and turn the knob to Pressure.
Release the pressure and...you have hard boiled eggs! Dip them in some icy water to
stop the cooking and then lift them out with a slotted spoon.
Ahhh, but were they actually cooked inside my hubby asked.
Yep! The big plus was how easy it was to peel them.
A little Easter egg dye and now I have some pretty eggs just for us.
*Note to self. DO NOT use balsamic vinegar with the dye tablets just because that is the only vinegar you have.
It makes orange eggs kind of brown. Luckily, the pink ones didn't require vinegar.

When telling my mother-in-law about my little egg cooking adventure, she said she thought it was just as easy to boil them on the stove. She is right, of course, just as it is easy to bake them in the oven. But, I HAD to try this and I didn't have to wait for water to boil. It was kind of fun to make these.
Sorry to those of you still covered in snow, but our weather is warm enough to start tomato plants...yay!
