How to peel the shell from a boiled egg
I woke up on Saturday with a craving for boiled eggs. As my better half was at work, I had the kitchen all to myself, so I immediately set about the task of boiling some eggs. The boiling bit was easy: sit the eggs in water 3/4 the height of the egg on its side, bring the water to boil and, once it's boiled, wait three minutes for a nice, gooey yolky egg.
The next bit was where I had trouble. Peeling the shell off a boiled egg is not much fun when you're not quite sure what you're doing. So, after chewing through a few bits of shell on my first effort, I dialled into that everyone-who's-looking-for-an-answer-to-something's best friend, Google, and typed in 'best way to peel a boiled egg'. And this is the video I found...
What do you think of that? Do you know of a better way to peel a boiled egg?
interesting. my method is to peel the boiled egg under cold running water, or peel it in a container of cold water. works OK too.
