Peeling boiled eggs, help!!!

[SneakyPhil]

See picture for what I do to mine prior to boiling them. I make the crack with a rounded surface. Then place in pot, add enough water to cover the eggs with about on inch of water, bring to a boil, once boiling turn off heat and cover for 10 min. When the ten min are up I put them in an ice water bath till cool. I still have some that are hard to peel but for the most part get better results.

I just tell my wife I want boiled eggs and they magically appear and they don't even have shells on them.

I had to dial 911 and the Haz Mat team showed up, with some funny looking face mask on them.

Boiling water - drop in eggs - cook 7.5 minutes - put in ice bath.

I like runny hot yoke....................

This way! Soft boil is the way to go.

I put them in a pan of cold water, set the burner on high, go out in the garage to do something and remember I was boiling eggs 30 minutes later. Run inside to find my eggs cracked all to hell and all the water evaporated. Throw the eggs in the trash and repeat.

You're cooking them too long...12 minutes and put them in cold water.
Yard eggs don't peel worth a crap either....not sure why

Let em sit on the shelf a couple of weeks

Dang it I'll never have that 2:27 second my life back!


I seriously expected it contain "take a swig of vodka" between every step of the process.

The faster you cool them off the easier it will be to peel. Boil for 10 min then ice cold water.

You can crack a little on both ends and then cup your hands around one end and blow hard. It will blow the egg out completely. You have to blow hard though. I have done it a few times, but my dad did it all the time when I was growing up.

Back when I was eating a dozen eggs a day for breakfast, that's how I peeled them. Was super easy.

Wow I've just realized I've been eating over cooked eggs all my life.

I guess I never gave it that much thought...
