<human>:  How do I make the perfect hard boiled egg?
<bot>: To make the perfect hard boiled egg, start by placing the eggs in a saucepan and adding enough cold water to cover the eggs by about an inch. Place the pan over medium-high heat, bring the water to a boil, and let it boil for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and cover with a lid. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. After 10-12 minutes, use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and enjoy!
