Yeah everyone has their own way of peeling eggs, handed down by parents/grandparents? Mine is to shake the saucepan quite hard just after the eggs are boiled (how hard depends on how long you boiled the egg). This should put a few clear cracks in the shell. Now submerge in ice water or just run cold water over the eggs for a minute. Now when you go to peel it, the shell has separated and it should just come right now cleanly. Works for me about 95% of the time (could be more but I'm often lazy) Here's my method explained in detail by someone else, followed by comments of more methods.. it's a rabbit hole. http://thestonesoup.com/blog/2010/03/the-secret-to-easy-to-peel-boiled-eggs/ http://thestonesoup.com/blog/2010/03/the-secret-to-easy-to-p...
