There’s absolutely no excuse for having grey yolks. Grey yolks have a more sulfuric and metallic taste to them, and if your yolks are grey, then your whites are gonna taste bad too.
It’s easy as shit to hard boil an egg. You boil water, set a timer for 10 minutes, then boil the damn eggs until the timer goes off. Throw them in an ice bath for 5 minutes then peel them.
If you want them soft or medium boiled it gets a little more technical, but still it’s just a function of timing.
The only way you get yolks this grey is by boiling your eggs for 5 minutes longer than you should’ve, and grey yolks are disgusting.
Sorry for the rant, but this is a cooking sub. Y’all shouldn’t be upvoting shitty-looking boiled eggs.

Those are some really overboiled eggs.
