Chef's Notes
Do not let the water reach a violent hurricane-level boil once the eggs are inside, otherwise they will rattle against each other and crack, spilling their precious liquid gold into the pot.
Pro Tip
Always use older eggs if you have them, as they have a slightly larger air pocket and higher pH level, making them vastly easier to peel than farm-fresh ones.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware, my misguided apprentices, for the most tragic and explosive downfall in egg-boiling history is dropping those fragile spheres like cannonballs into a roaring tempest, only to watch them shatter against the bottom of the pot and transform into a sad, rubbery egg-drop soup that would make even the scullery maids weep.

The Culinary Science
Plunging hot eggs into an ice bath causes the egg inside to contract slightly away from the shell, while rapidly cooling the sulfur compounds to prevent that dreaded grey-green ring around the yolk.
