Peeling Boiled Eggs

  • About

Hard-boiled and mollet eggs are sometimes hard to peel, depending on the freshness of the egg. In very fresh eggs, the outer membrane tends to cling to the albumen, making the egg harder to peel. Plunging the eggs into cold water as soon as they are cooked helps loosen the shell, as does peeling them under cold running water. Eggs mollet must be peeled very carefully.

Tap the egg all over to crack the shell in small pieces. Under running water, peel away skin and shell from the egg white. Dry the egg with absorbent paper.
