Add eggs in a single layer to the bottom of a large pot.
Fill pot with COLD water until there is about 1" - 2" of water above the eggs. Add salt and baking soda.
Bring water to a boil. Once water is boiling, reduce heat to medium and boil for about 1 minute.
Cover pot and remove from heat. Let sit, covered, for another 10 minutes.
Strain water from pot and put eggs in an ice-water bath until the eggs are cool to the touch, about 10 minutes.
Lightly crack the shell of the eggs and peel.
