The easiest way to peel hardboiled eggs is by following these simple steps you can easily peel hardboiled eggs without frustration or difficulty
Cool the eggs after boiling the eggs immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool rapidly let them sit in the ice water bath for at least 10 minutes this helps to stop the cooking process and allows the eggs to contract slightly
Tap and roll gently tap each cooled egg on a hard surface to crack the shell all over then roll the egg between your hands to further crack the shell be careful not to press too hard as you dont want to crush the egg
Peel under running water peel the eggs under a stream of running water or submerged in a bowl of water the water helps to loosen the shell and makes it easier to remove
Peel carefully peel off the shell in small pieces taking care not to remove chunks of egg white along with it if you encounter stubborn spots use your fingers or a spoon to gently pry the shell away from the egg
Rinse and dry once the egg is peeled rinse it under running water to remove any remaining shell fragments pat the egg dry with a paper towel before serving or storing
