A home cook has revealed the genius cooking gadget she uses to make perfect hard boiled eggs every time.

Foodie Kaoutar swears by a $13 colour changing timer from Amazon to tell when her eggs are cooked to perfection. 

The timer transforms from white to red as the egg cooks and even has the soft, medium and hard cooking stages written on the surface.

The gadget has been designed to slip into the pot along with eggs and boiling water to control cooking times in a precise manner. 

'Probably one of my favourite purchases, always have the perfect hard boiled eggs,' Kaoutar wrote. 

To restore the timer back to its original white colour after use, simply place it on a kitchen bench or somewhere at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. 

She shared the gadget on Facebook for other home cooks to find and many left comments saying they need the egg cooker themselves. 

'I need this. Mine always come out over cooked,' a foodie wrote.   

In another Facebook page a group of parents have revealed a simple way to prevent the offensive odour of boiled eggs cooking from spreading through the house.

A mum named, Natasha, simply added a few teaspoons of white distilled vinegar into the water when boiling eggs and it neutralised the smell.  

According to culinary scientist Jessica Gavin, boiling eggs releases the iron in the yolk while the whites release sulfur and hydrogen that causes the smell to occur.

But adding the vinegar to the water when cooking the eggs will help prevent this chemical reaction from occurring without impacting the taste of the food. 

Why do boiled eggs smell and how does white vinegar prevent it?  

Culinary scientist Jessica Gavin wrote on her website that cooking eggs releases chemicals in the food to form an unpleasant gas
