Egg boiling question. I've always held that they boil better is you get the grease really hot first. My best friend's wife says I should use water. What is YOUR take on all this?

put your eggs in water and put on med heat until the water comes to a rapid boil. Turn heat off and let your eggs sit in the water for about 15 minutes and your yolks will be very yellow. If you continue to let it boil until it is done the yolks are pale. :)
