Did you already cook them? If so, it may be difficult to rescue them.
Some tips for next time. https://www.quiltingboard.com/recipe...s-t303536.html Another one. I like the egg cooked a little more than these. https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipe...d_boiled_eggs/ Good luck! |

Get an instant pot...perfectly peeled every time

For the future deviled eggs in your life, buy an egg cooker. Even fresh eggs will peel easily. I bought one because I never had two week old eggs on hand when the mood for deviled eggs struck me. (Old eggs will peel easily when hard boiled in a pot, fresh eggs won't.)

I never have problems peeling hard boiled eggs. Boil them, then as soon as they are done dump them in the sink. Rinse the eggs & pan with cold water to cool them down so you don't burn your fingers. Crack the shells all the way around. I just bang them on the sink & press them with my fingers, while still running cold water on them. Put them back in the pan & cover them with cold water. Peel them while they are still warm. The key is to get water under the membrane, so the shells will easily come off.

Using real fresh eggs never works for me, just don't peel well.

I've heard that putting a lemon in the pot when boiling eggs somehow makes them peel like magic.
