Notes

These eggs are delicious but do not keep well. So make as many as you need and eat them that day.
Make the hard boiled eggs in advance. What I do is make them the night before and let them sit on the stove top. 
I put the eggs in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. I let them boil for 5 mins and then turn off the heat and let them sit in the water and cool down.
