The Secret to Perfectly Peeled Eggs—No More Mess!

4. Ice Bath is a Must

After boiling, transfer the eggs immediately into an ice bath (a bowl of ice water) for at least 5 minutes. The cold water causes the egg to contract slightly, pulling away from the shell.

5. Crack and Roll Technique
Once cooled, gently tap the egg on a hard surface, then roll it under your palm to loosen the shell. Start peeling from the bottom where there is usually an air pocket.

Bonus Tip: Try Steaming Instead of Boiling
Steaming eggs for about 12 minutes instead of boiling can make them even easier to peel. The steam helps loosen the shell without overcooking the egg.

Now you can enjoy perfectly peeled eggs without frustration! Try this method and say goodbye to messy peeling forever. 🍳🥚
