I took your advice and used this tip whenI boiled some eggs and it works great. I’m using eggs from a store and WOW the timing actually is really a important step. Thank you

This technique works for any number of eggs.

Thanks. I want to try this, but I’m boiling ALOT of eggs to make deviled eggs for a party. Will an amount such as 2 dozen eggs alter the success of this technique?

I would guess that your eggs were still a little too fresh. It’s also possible that your eggs didn’t get cooled down quickly enough… it’s hard to know. Usually this method works great.

I followed all these steps. The eggs were about 5 days old. Even though they were perfectly cooked, the shells were impossible to remove… most of the whites came off with the shell. They were large eggs and I let them sit for 15 minutes after I took them off the heat (immediately covered the pan). Don’t know why it didn’t work.

The age of the egg is the most important factor in ease of peeling, and overcooking is the main reason for a discolored yolk.
