It works the same way with hard boiled eggs. Start with cold water, bring to a boil and boil at least 8 minutes, then remove from heat. They will finish cooking while it cools. I don't usually get a green yolk, just nice and yellow, not overcooked at all. I did however give up the stove top cooking of eggs and bought a krups egg cooker. I like it a lot better than doing it stove top.
