Boiled eggs?

Post by dnolen »

Alright when we boil eggs from the store we never have a issue with peeling. But when we boIL our fresh eggs the shells always stick. What's the trick to boiling fresh eggs.

Increase the PH of the water you are using. Add a tablespoon or so of bicarbonate of soda.

Also, start with very cold water then slowly bring it up to a boil ... prevents cracking

I talked to the Boss and she boils them, pours off the hot water, refills the pot with cold water and lets them sit for around 10 minutes. She peels them under cold running water from the faucet. Oh yeah, she also puts about a TBSP of salt in the boiling water. We eat a lot of boiled eggs.
