I am over 60 years old and it took me all of this time to learn how to make a perfect boiled egg and peel with ease on an internet site a few years ago. First, to boil them {andit doesn't matter if it is 2 eggs or 10, cover eggs with water and add NOTHING {no salt, vinegar or anything}. Bring to a boil and boil for 3 minutes. Then take eggs off the heat and keep the pan covered and set your timer for 8 minutes and then they are done! Perfect eggs with no black {rim around the yolk}! So to peel them, hit the egg shell {with a knife or on a sharp surface} around the middle of the egg all the way around. Then the egg shell should come off fairly easy for you! :D
