I do something similar to boil eggs:

1) Put eggs in pot, cover with water.

2) Put pot with lid on stove on full heat.

3) Wait for the water to boil, then turn off the heat.

4) Wait 6 minutes (for eggs with slightly soft interior)

5) Cover eggs with cold water, wait one minute, peel.

Perfect eggs every time, and I am sure this saves a bunch of energy. They peel really well too.
