large eggs

Instructions
Put the eggs in the bottom of the bowl and cover the eggs with water. (Water should be about 1/2 an inch over the top of the eggs.)
Add 1½ teaspoons of salt.
Microwave the eggs for 5 minutes.
Allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for 5-6 minutes (the longer you leave the eggs in the hot water, the more cooked the yolk will be)
Place the eggs in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and cool the eggs.
