Method
Boil the eggs firm
BoilLower the eggs into boiling water for eight minutes, then cool them completely under the cold tap. Eight minutes gives a firm yolk, which is what you want in a box — a soft one makes a mess of everything else in there.

Pack the box
PackPeel the eggs and pack them into two containers with the tomatoes and cucumber. Wrap the salt and pepper in a twist of paper rather than seasoning now — salt draws water out of everything and you will open a wet box.

Cook's notePeel the eggs under running water, starting at the fat end where the air pocket is. Day-old eggs peel far more easily than fresh ones.
