Hard Boiled eggs fool proof

By Tdunl

Ingredients

• eggs
• 1 tsp baking soda

Preparation

Step 1

Tip: If you can purchase your eggs at least 1 week in advance.
Fresher eggs are harder to peel.
If that is not possible, this method will work!
Add eggs to a pot (one layer only-do not stack)
Cover with Water
Add a teaspoon of baking soda (Fine Cooking says this is because the albumen, or the egg white, will stick to the shell of a fresher egg, but as the egg ages, it doesn’t stick as much to the shell. When the water with baking soda passes through the eggshell, it helps the albumen to separate from the shell.)
Set to medium/high and bring to a boil
Once Boiling shut off the burner and cover with a lid.
Let sit for 15 minutes.
Then pour off the water and shake the pan to smash the shells a bit.
Cover with cold water and ice cubes.
Let sit 15 minutes
Peel will come off easily now
Hope you have great success!
