Peeling Hard Boiled Eggs
Put eggs in a sauce pan and cover with 1" of cold water. Bring to a rapid boil, cover, and turn heat off. Let set for 10-12 minutes. Pour out hot water and place eggs under cold running water. Crack the large end of the eggs and place them back into the cold water. Let set for several minutes. Eggs should peel easily. If not, place back in cold water for another minute or two.
This is one handy tip. We frequently have very fresh eggs from our chickens and Hannah uses this tip and it works even on those eggs. When the large end of the shell is cracked, the water seeps in the air pocket and under the membrane separating the membrane from the egg and making it easy to peel. Sometimes you need to pierce the membrane and roll it around under water to get the water under the membrane.
Love Always,
Mommy
