What's the best way to peel a hard boiled egg?

[Skip Towne]

I've been cracking both ends and blowing into either end. It separates the egg from the shell....sometimes. Do you peel them hot, warm or cold? Help me out here, people.

The best way to eat a hard-boiled egg is purchase a civet egg. The civet is a small jungle animal that eats eggs whole. You feed a civet a hard-boiled egg, which passes through the digestive tract unopened but absorbing unique civet digestive juices. Upon being expelled at the other end two days later, the creature's anus cracks open the egg, which is then served with juice and toast.

Please approve my post, Thanks The best way to peel a hard-boiled egg is to start with eggs that are a few days old. After boiling, transfer them to an ice water bath to cool completely. Gently tap the egg on a hard surface to crack the shell all over, then roll it to loosen the shell. Peel under running water to help remove any small bits of shell. And What's your favorite method for making hard-boiled eggs easier to peel? Have you tried adding baking soda to the boiling water, or do you have another trick that works every time? I would be very happy if you could let me know, thanks because the same problem I will face then I will create a trick like this.

GOOD MORNING SIR

Similar to Megatron

[QUOTE]Yes, tapping an egg with a spoon before boiling it can make it easier to peel:
1. Tap the larger end
Use the spoon to lightly tap the larger, round end of the egg where the air cell is located, but avoid tapping the skinnier end.
2. Listen for a snap (pop)
You should hear a hollow sound when the membrane separates from the shell. It usually takes a few taps.

Coworker told me about the 5-5-5 Instant pot method. Not for speed but for peeling later. It worked very well the couple of time I've tried it.

I’ve heard baking them in cupcake trays works really well but have not tried it.

Put it in a strippers pussy, have her squeeze her Klegel muscle and out pops the egg.
