How to peel of the shell of boiled egg properly?
-
Everytime I peel the shell, all the egg white always come out. In the end, I m left with nothing but the yolk of the egg
Any tips on how I can peel of the shell in an easy manner? I dont fancy a boiled egg pockmarked with holes -
lousy lah u
i prefer sunny side up -
Last time I can peel very well de...now I got clumsy hands...peel already all the eggs got so many holes...I wonder if boiling the egg longer will soften the shell?Originally posted by FireIce:lousy lah u

Actually the trick is not to use too much force. Break the egg hard at the part of the egg with air pocket. Some part of the shell will break and some will come sticking out. Peel from the edges of these first.
Also, when peeling the rest of the egg, dont use ur fingers and press into the egg. Ur fingers should move along the contour of the egg.
To summarise, dont use too much force....

Crack the egg on the counter or something, then roll the egg between your palms a couple of times. You'll find that the shell gets dislodged and it will be easy to peel then.
Sheesh - I'm surprised this is not well-known. -
actually, i think the eggs are just not hard-boiled enough la

Remember to peel off a layer of dry egg white that will sumtimes stick to the egg or shell...

http://www.eggstractor.net/ I was about to ask you whether there was the exisistence of an egg peeler -
the trick..as taught to me by my SQ chef friend:
just before full boil- take the eggs out and dip into a
bowl of ice cubes + water for 2 minutes, this shrinks
the body of the egg from the shell..
than put the eggs back into the boiling water again for
10 seconds, this expands the shell n warms up the egg again
n add a bit of salt to the water when boiling
this prevents the egg from cracking..
it works good, try it..
