Peeling eggs again

BigDog said:

I just did a batch last night. First I used the
egg pricker to put a tiny hole in the large end
of the egg. This keeps them from cracking and
leaking from the shell. Steamed in my steamer on
stovetop. When done, about 15-20 minutes, I put
them in a smaller pot and shook it around to put
cracks in the shells. Filled with cold water to
cool off. Peeled so easy I will do them this way
from now on.

I put eggs in cold water, bring to a boil until hard boiled, then drain
and fill with cold water. I've never had problems peeling them. IMO,
15-20 minutes seems long but then I boil not steam the eggs. DH loves
egg salad sandwiches 🙂

BigDog,
To E-mail me, you know what to do.

When I did my steaming test batch, I didn't even shake the eggs around to
crack the shells, and the egg shells still came off in large pieces. I
stored them in the fridge with uncracked shells and the peels still fell
away several days later. Thanks for the report on timing.

I wonder how many times this topic has been brought up on rfc? I'm not
objecting, there are probably readers who learn from it each time if
the lurking audience out there swirls around and comes and goes the way
I suspect it does. What do you suppose are the other most-repeated
topics? Tipping, and the behavior of other people's children in
public, for sure, but which ones as to cooking itself--both recipes and
techniques?

Didn't I have a good Idea?...well in 50 years you gotta get it right at
least once.

Yes you did. I've already shared the idea with many friends. What really
makes it a good idea is that it is so simple. Thanks again.
