    I learned this trick not too long ago and it seems to be working. Before putting the boiled eggs into cold water crack the shell a little bit. While the eggs are cooling off some of the water seeps in under the shell and when you're ready to peel the shell slips right off. This is the only helpful hint for shelling eggs that has really worked for me.

    Another tip. Start eggs in cold water, bring to a good boil, keep lid on, turn off heat, set aside for 10 minutes. Eggs will cook through without wasting all that gas or electricity.

    To Prevent eggs from cracking while cooking... place eggs in pot then add cold water then add some salt & boil on low fire. I will have to try the baking soda method!

    Put the eggs on the counter overnight and allow them to warm up to room temperature. I've always used salt and vinegar, but baking soda is probably cheaper. Lastly, it's a good idea to age your eggs in the fridge for a few days. If you buy from the same seller you'll become accustom to how fresh they are. Very fresh eggs don't peel easily!

    Tips from 85 year-old egg farmer. Put your eggs in a pot bring it to a boil for 15 minutes pour the water off in the zinc that's right I'm German peel your eggs under running cold water while they're still hot if you allow the membrane between the egg and the shell to cool it sticks. If you have laying hens and can't use or sell the eggs quick enough lubricate an ice cube tray with lard bacon grease or cooking spray crack your eggs and place them in the tray pop them in the freezer lay a piece of wax paper on top and stack them when you need an egg pop out a cube. The original cackle fruit is cool man

    I steam my eggs. Put steamer tray in bottom of pan. I steam one dozen at a time. My four legged girl which she loves them very much. I do salt the water. Ceramic top stove, set timer for 21 min. Drain water, fill with cold, change water after 5 min. 5 min later I peel. This is the trick to getting a nice egg. Just under the shell is a membrane, remove part of it, the will peel very easy. Doing this I do not look at the egg, just peel.
    Put just enough water to the inside bottom of tray. They come out nice yellow color, no green surface on the outside of yoke. If you have green cover of yoke, you cooked to long

    After placing your eggs in a pot then fill with water to just cover the eggs. Bring pot of eggs to a boil for about 1 to 2 minutes then cover and take off the heat for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes run under cold water to start cooling the eggs. Let eggs sit in cold water until they are cold then peel. No additives!!

    I have fresh farm eggs every morning and I have had for many years. The real trick is boil the eggs, then drain and just before adding cold water smack them about in the pot to crack the shells. They peal just fine that way and its way easier than you think.

    Put eggs in cold water, Boil for 3 minutes, shut heat off and move off heat, cover with lid. Let set for 10 mins. dump out hot water add cold water and ice to pan. Leave for 5 mins. then when cold peel and eat. If you are not going to eat right away, leave in shell and put them in frig. Enjoy. Helps if you run cold water on eggs when you peel them.

    My sure fire trick is to plunge the freshly boiled eggs into ice water and let them sit in it or 30 minutes.They peel easy peasy. Try it. You'll like it. Eggs can be right from the store of weeks old and the still peel easily. The super cold water causes the thin film to separate from the egg allowing the shell to be peeled lickety split.

    Tried many ways to make them easy to peal, but nothing works as well as cocking them in an instant pot with high pressure. Use only a half cup of water and takes only six minutes. Matters not if they are fresh or not. No need to fiddle with vinegar or baking soda. Perfect every time.

    Bring water to boil. Gently place eggs in water and lower the temperature to a simmer. Cook for 13 minutes. Drain pot of hot water and run cold facet water into the pot. Add a tray of ice cubes to rapidly cool the eggs. This methond results in perfectly cooked, no green in the yoke and easy to peel eggs

    Baking soda is alkaline NOT acidic, anyway...as a chef of 30+ years, when hard boiling one or one hundred eggs, add nothing to the water, boil for ten minutes and flash under cold, even iced water, THIS is the best way to peel eggs. Remember, the shell is attached to the egg by a thin membrane, it is this membrane we are trying to seperate from the egg, not so much the shell.

    In order to prevent the eggs from cracking turn the temperature of the water down so it is still boiling but not bubbling. Then slowly lower the eggs in with a slotted spoon and they will not crack. It has nothing to do with overcooking them, it's just that the roiling water breaks the eggshells...

    • @vanjosh7763
      @vanjosh7763 5 років тому

      Actually, there are also eggs that can be difficult to tell sometimes that have tiny cracks on the shell. Those cracks can enlarge due to heat causing the difference in pressure inside and outside of the egg thus releasing the egg white out. So, make sure to look at the egg's surface carefully to see whether there are some small cracks.

    water is (effectively) never hotter than 100c, so the inside of the never gets hott enough to turn water into steam. When the touches the bottom for too long gets heat conducted straight from the metal of the pot allowing some of the water in the to and the shell."

      Thanks for the tip... HEY! I know you... ;)
      I made a dozen last week and they stuck SO bad to the shells... I chucked out so much egg... grrrrr
      So do you put the eggs into the boiling water carefully or in cold water and bring them to a boil?

    I use vinegar and it works better.
    Baking soda makes the eggs taste funny.

    Put your boiled eggs in a small plastic container and shake it vigorously , shell will come off in 3 seconds . Or order an egg peeling machine from T.V for $19.95 plus shipping . No more back pain from peeling eggs .

    Don't boil eggs, steam them. Put them in the steamer at steam for 13 minutes. Cool in ice bath or running cold water. They will peel beautifully. Even if they were laid yesterday.

    They're not hard to boil. Sometimes they're hard to peel without shards and fragments developing.

    Bring eggs to room temperature first. Then STEAM for 18 minutes. Place in ice water bath and peel with a spoon under running water ... EZPZ

    I know from long experience and boiling hundreds of eggs that eggs peel MUCH easier if they are very warm. Cold eggs are the worst. I don't understand all the people who think they peel easier when cold.

    Gordon Ramsey says that eggs are only fresh when they are frozen.
    Is this a chef's tip or is this only used in restaurants?

    Place eggs and water in pan. Turn on oven ring and wait until the water begins to boil. Turn oven ring off and put lid on pan. Let pan sit for 15 minutes. Now remove water and add running cold water from sink tap. Running water will keep the water surrounding the eggs always cold. After a minute or two, remove eggs and begin removing the egg shells.
    End result is perfectly boiled eggs with easy peel shells. This procedure also saves energy.

    Let the water get hot and lower them in the water on a big slotted spoon. Works for me.

    “Put Baking Soda When You Boil Eggs.”
    Ye Dogs! You “boil” eggs?
    No! Absolutely not! No, NEVER “boil” your eggs!
    Place the eggs in a pot of water, turn on the heat, bring the water just to a boil, then cover the pot and immediately TURN OFF THE HEAT!
    Let the eggs sit undisturbed for the appropriate length of time in the hot - NOT BOILING - water (for soft cooked eggs - slightly runny yolks, whites firmly set - 13 minutes works for me, adjust the time to your preference) then scoop the eggs from the pot with a slotted spoon and place them in a prepared bowl of ice water to cool.
    When the eggs are cool enough to handle, crack and peel them under running water; the running water makes the peeling much easier.
    Baking Soda? Salt? Sure, give it a try.

    You don't need that much water to bil eggs! Just fil the pot with a quater to half inches, and when it Bodils turn down the heat to just boiling. That way you save energy bacause of less water! ;)

    • @MC-gp9ke
      @MC-gp9ke 7 років тому +3

      you only need to bring the water to a boil with a half pot of water, then allow eggs to cool to room temperature. this will give you a perfect boiled eggs each time and allows you to save on electric bill. make sure it is a full boil before turning off the stove and simply cover the pot with the matching lid.

      If eggs aren't fresh, the air cell at the wide end shrinks and eventually disappears. This is when the peels separate from the membrane, and the membrane (fine white skin) sticks to the cooked albumen or egg white.
      So if the raw eggs have a sheen to them, pass them by and look for a dull white with no shine to it whatsoever.
      But hey, if you don't shock your eggs in ice cold water before peeling, and as soon as it comes off the stove, then those peels won't come off as easily as you'd like them to either. Shock, don't store them in the cold water. If you work quickly, you'll have the best success.

    • @KimiW
      @KimiW 6 років тому +2

      Mel Colp that's true. My Mom did that. Start the eggs in cool water, bring to a boil then shut heat off. It's important that you leave the lid on the pot before turning off the stove to keep the steam in to continue the cooking process. About 15 to 20 mins later, they're ready to be peeled and eaten!

  • @MarjorieMay-kc6ls

    Another one to peel boiled eggs easily is run the cold tap for a while and put at least 6 ice cubs in the water depending on how big the ice cubes are you may need 7 leave for a few minutes and the shel comes away easily.

  • @extolzebulon9831
    @extolzebulon9831 6 років тому

    As crap ! All you have to do is put the eggs under cold water after they are cooked eggs will peal easy...To avoid egg shells when cracking an egg, crack the egg on a flat surface, If a shell does end up with the cracked egg ? Use the large egg shell to attach the shell to the shell it works every time.
