I use an egg cooker. Those little machines that you can soft boil, hard boil, poach and even a small omelet. I have used it for years and never have a problem peeling the hard boiled eggs. For hard boiled eggs they are done in about 1o minutes. My SIL didn't like hers because it only cooked 6 eggs at a time. But she also complains how hard it is to peel her eggs. Since it is just my DH & I at home, 6 eggs are fine, and so once in a while I need to cook more, so I just cook 6, then cook 6 more. It's just not a big deal, I love that I don't have to watch them on the stove, the little machine turns off when it is done. And it doesn't matter if I peel it the same day or 2 days later.
