Yes, it works!! Nice egg tip. When I lower 12 eggs into boiling water, even if the eggs are near room temp, the water stops boiling for 60 to 90 secs.
Are we to wait for the water to start boiling and then count 30 secs? This totally worked. Thanks for the tip. Tried this on a couple of eggs — test run for doing dozen eggs for an event. What am I doing wrong? I followed these directions exactly, even poking the hole with the thumbtack, and the eggs were impossible to peel.
I actually gave up and tossed them. Have you used an electric stovetop to employ this method? I always worry about the boiling water taking too long to reverse to a simmer, thereby overcooking the eggs in the process. I followed these instructions precisely and they peeled absolutely perfectly!
Thanks so much! The reason you start eggs in cold water is that they often crack if you put the cold eggs into hot water, same as if you pour hot water into a cold glass. This recipe and Google Maps — reasons alone for the internet. This worked perfectly! Thank you, now and for the rest of my years.. Your email address will not be published.

Bring a pot of water to a full boil. Use an appropriate-sized pot that will fit your eggs. If using, use a thumbtack to make a tiny hole at the top of the big end of the eggs.
See note. Gently lower the eggs into boiling water. A fine mesh strainer or spider-skimmer work well for this. I had several broken eggs on my first batch when I put the eggs in while the water was at a rolling boil. Hope this helps someone because this recipe is a game-changer! Cover the pan with a lid and wait 13 minutes. Put the eggs in an ice bath. You can do this by filling a separate bowl with water and ice, and transfer the eggs, or, gently pour the water out of the pan without cracking the eggs, then fill the pan with cold water and ice.
The first way, with the bowl, is easiest to prevent accidentally cracking your eggs while they are hot. Leave the eggs in the ice bath for 15 minutes. Peel, or store in the refrigerator unpeeled for up to three days. To peel, gently tap the egg at the big end first, then the small end, then tap all around to gently crack the shell. Be amazed at how easy they peel. Notes Tips to prevent cracking: Tip to prevent cracking 1: Be sure to not crowd the pan. If they crack while cooking, it may be because they were too crowded.
In the US eggs are refrigerated because they are power-washed before packing. No need to bring them to room temp, you can use this method with eggs straight out of the refrigerator. Make sure you have a single layer of eggs in the pan. Joan says:.

When you hard-boil as many eggs as we did to test deviled egg recipes for the SAVEUR , you start to wonder what the best way is to peel the darned things. We rolled, cracked, and carefully peeled our way through hundreds of them before we arrived at a few simple truths.
The most important step to getting a perfect, pock-free peel is to tap your hard-boiled eggs with a spoon or roll them on the countertop to crack the shells before you shock the eggs in cold water. This will loosen the membrane and make them easier to peel.
I put them in cold water with salt and waited until the water started rapidly boiling. I set my timer for 10 minutes. Immediately I put them in a very small bowl only big enough to hold the eggs snugly and added 3 ice cubes and water to the tip of bowl and left them like that for minutes and presto!!!
Same as any other method. The list goes on. I want to try this… maybe I will get the same great results. My question is… I have an electric stove.
So when I bring my eggs to a boil, should I slide the pot off of that burner for the 13 min? Or leave it on the hot burner for the 13 min?
Cindy, I am glad you read the whiny comments. I have made these twice now and each time they came out amazing! I will only use this method from now on. So easy and fast. Perfect every time. Thank you so much for this recipe. Look out world! I followed your instructions, exactly! Thank you for sharing! I followed the directions exactly and the eggs were still difficult to peel. I am SO glad I googled this!! It made my job of preparing about 70 deviled eggs much easier. Thanks this worked really well.
I used and egg poacher cooked for 15 min. Thanks for telling us about the green ring. Followed the procedure exactly, and it worked perfectly!
The eggs literally peeled in one piece, and the yolks fall out without sticking. Perfect consistency. These eggs were only a few days old and it still worked great. I realize these post are over a year old but can you tell me if the salt is absorbed into the egg. While the salt does not permeate the shell, a certain amount of the salt does indeed slip through the microscopic cracks of the shell.
It might not be a large portion of salt but if you eat eggs frequently then it could potentially slightly effect your health. Other than that, I like this recipe, I used to over boil my eggs because I was too afraid of possible bacteria. Thats how my mom cooked them. Green Rings are a tradition. This method worked perfect for me and my eggs were beautiful and delicious. Thanks so much for the tip. Put it in an ice cold bath and while the shell didnt come off in 3 peels, it did come off quite easily.
A co-worker of mine, says the way to get easy peel eggs is to leave eggs in his locker for 7 days un-refrigerated , and then boil them for 16 minutes, do you consider that safe? I personally just run cold water over mine and tap them with a spoon and the shell comes right off.
What do you think? The shell peeled perfectly and the yolk was a perfect yellow. Thanks for sharing your tips!! I just found this website to search… how to make hardboiled egss…. Thanks for sharing. Ditto to me too. I am in charge of deviled eggs tomorrow and was throwing a fit because I went through a whole dozen with only one peeling right. Luckily, I bought a second dozen and tried your method and every one came out beautiful.
My husband is super excited though because the messed up first dozen got made into egg salad for sandwiches :. I have never made hard boiled eggs more yummy, beautiful and yellow and not over cooked. So glad I found your method. Only problem was the peeling but that was my fault. Had to use eggs I bought today as Easter is Sunday and we need to color them tomorrow. Looking forward to trying ot with not so fresh eggs. This method works great. The yokes come out a beautiful yellow color.
I never time it exactly and it always comes out right. My only problem is that you can only make about 15 at a time with the regular size pot. I tried the oven once, and eggs have ugly brown spots on them. I may try that again. Another good tip: To make sure your yolks are always perfectly centered, which makes them easier to fill and prettier- turn egg carton upside down in fridge a few hours before boiling :.
I just followed the directions exactly …. I also took the eggs out of the fridge and put them into salted water. After the cold bath for 5 mins I cracked both ends peeled…blew into the smaller opening and you can hear the shell move when you do this…and peels easily.
These eggs are for me not a party. Susie, this recipe is just for hard boiled eggs. Egg salad recipes will use these hard boiled eggs. Still, the shells were quite easy to peel off, which was my main issue with boiling eggs. This did not work at all for me and I followed the directions. I was making deviled eggs for a church potluck. I had all yolks and hardly any whites! Will keep looking for another method.
I just did it………….. Just like the recipe said, way to go Momables! Perfect white, bright yellow yolks with not even a remote sign of the unsightly green tone. Yeah, ya gotta gently break up the shell adn then before you know it you are taking off the entire shell in simple and large 1 or 2 large pieces and DONE! I have never made eggs this easy. We pressure boil our eggs and they usually come out perfect. Half cover the eggs with water, seal the pressure cooker and put on med high — high heat until up to pressure and set the timer for 7 min.
Once at pressure start timer and back off the heat a tad bit. Once time is up cool immediately under cold water. Once pressure is released then open and cool eggs w cold water I like to add ice but DH just used cold water. I use both boughten eggs that are fresh, boughten eggs that have been in the fridge for a couple weeks or a month, and also used our home grown eggs layed by our chickens that eat bugs, seeds and whatever they can find.
I have used vinegar in the water, baking soda, or salt.. I tried this the other day with eggs bought a week ago, except I boiled for two minutes and took of burner to sit for another 12 minutes in hot water.
They came out perfect once peeled. Thanks a lot for the tidbit. Based on other reviewers that said they were a bit underdone in the center, I let them sit for 14 minutes instead of They are perfect! I have never been able to make hard boiled eggs that are not overdone. Also, the shells came off very easily…my eggs were bought 5 days ago. However, I do have the organic, cage free eggs.
Maybe the previous poster had a point about what our chickens are being fed. Kelly, thanks so much for coming back and providing feedback! Did not work. Destroyed the egg while attempting to peel and runny in the center. Exactly—I am on a diet and boiled eggs without the yolk are part of my everyday sustenance. Even when I know my eggs are 10 days old. Not working and I lose half my egg because of the membrane sticking to the shell.
