Make a small hole before boiling them:
The key is to release the air inside the egg. How? By making a tiny hole in the widest part before cooking it.
This prevents the shell from sticking to the white, making peeling a piece of cake later.
What do you need:
-
A pin, a needle or a thumbtack .
-
Raw eggs, of course.
Step by step:
-
Grab the egg with one hand, carefully.
-
With the other end, slowly pierce the rounded end. It doesn’t need to go all the way through, just a tiny hole so the air can escape.
-
Bring it to a boil as usual, being careful not to knock it over.
-
Once they are cooked, transfer them to a bowl of cold water for a few minutes.
When you go to peel them, you will see the difference: the shell comes off without a fight.
