Peeling Hard Boiled Eggs, How do you do it?

[polo1665]

I can't believe this went on for six pages.

I didn't read it all but to make boiled eggs easier to peel, run cold water over them to chill immediately after removing from heat. It shrinks the inner layer of egg white away for the shell. The shell and that outer "skin" peels right off.

I do this every time, and there are still times when the eggs won't peel easily.

What do you put on your HB eggs when you eat them? Here are my favorites:
Salt and pepper
Vinegar
Mayo
Tabasco

Sometimes salt only, but mayo is my favorite.

Ok so I was going to go with the 3pt PTO egg peeler but not sure about putting all those hours on the tractor !!
This should keep the thread going for days !

Morning: Soft boiled - runny yoke... cut the top off, use an egg cup holder, just salt and a baby spoon.

Evening: Hard boiled - Deviled!

I've been looking at the SSQA model with hydraulic spinner. I just haven't decided if I want to pay extra for the one-step boil device.

Once you have it you'll never go back !

Well of course. Nothing is always. My girlfriend says no sometimes. :laughing:

The hydraulic opposable thumb works too.
Have to make sure its the double jointed one of course.
