How Long Do You Boil An Egg?

Hard boiled eggs should cook for 14 minutes. (allrecipes.com)
  Add 1 tablespoon of salt, 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar to 6 cups of water in a large pot on the stove to get your cooking started. After that, turn the stove heat on and bring the liquid to a fast boil. Add the eggs one by one, making sure they don't crack on their way into the water, and reduce the heat just a tad. Boil for 14 minutes on medium high.

Once the eggs are done, after the 14 minutes, remove them from the hot water carefully, and place them in a container of cold water -- either ice water or cold running water will do the trick. Then, let them cool completely for about 15 minutes, and place them in the refrigerator. They should stay good for about a week.
