Mom taught me eggs in cold water bring to boil. Boil for two minutes. Turn off heat and let sit for ten minutes.

Then put in an ice bath
Also fresh eggs just don't boil well, they do much better when they are closer to the expiration date

This is what I do. Never had a problem and never a green ring.
I tried them in the oven also. Perfect.

I only use eggs my chickens hatch so they are always fresh.
Put in a pot of water. Turn on the fire. Wgen the water comes to a boil take each one out and crack it. Boil them 5 more minutes and stick them in an ice bath. Learned it from an old man farmer that I get my laying hens from.

Put a little baking soda in the water. Eggs are easier to peel.
Older eggs do boil better.

Bring water to rolling boil or just a boil?
On my particular stove, if it's a rolling boil thy are hard boiled and if it's just starting to boil they are soft boiled.
