We raise our own hens and have no intention of letting the eggs age if we want deviled eggs or egg salad. First, don't boil them. Absolute best way is to steam them. Even fresh from the hen eggs peel just fine using this method: Put an inch or two of water in a pot. Place eggs in a suitable container like a colander and put it in the pot. Do not let the water touch the eggs. Cover the pot. Bring the water to a boil. Continue boiling for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for another 10 minutes. Fill the pot with cold water. Take the eggs one by one and crack all over with the back of a spoon then toss them back in the cold water. Start peeling once all the eggs are cracked and the shells will slip off easily. Ross.

Hey.... there is easy way to peal an egg shells. Boil egg for 15 minutes and then take those boiled eggs in bowl and pour cold water into it crake that egg shell by beating around it, then peal by using two hands, shell smoothly removes out without any scraps on eggs. Like this way goes for boiled potato too to removes its skin. |

Put eggs in pot. Fill pot with water. Bring to boil. Turn off stove. Cover and let sit for 17 minutes. Dump out hot water, and plunge into cold water (or dump ice cubes over the eggs). -- "Isn't embarrassing to quote something you didn't read and then attack what it didn't say?"--WG, where else but Usenet |

I would put all the eggs into a pot with some salt (supposed to hkeep from cracking) and put very warm tap water to cover. Put on the fire an dwhen boiled, turn off and remove 2 eggs for my husband. walk to the dining foyer and give him eggs. return to stove adn remove next 2 eggs for me and repeat walking proceedure adn retun to stove. remove next 2 eggs for younger son and return to stove and remove last two egs for older son who liked , what he use to clall as a baby, no0juice eggs. It is all a matter of timeing. /but one questions. How do you make devled eggs with loosish yolks? For that you really need those no-juice eggs. Wendy |

That part I don't remember. But I have never had trouble with those. Have had trouble in recent years with hard boiled not being cook through enough. Now I just by the pre-boiled if I need them for a salad recipe or something. Nobody will eat them otherwise. |

Based on all the commercials for non-stick frying pans it would seem that frying an egg sunny side up (in anything other then the product being sold) means that the cook hasn't learned to do anything other than stab at the fried egg with their spatula. They make it seem like it's the fault of the other pan, when in reality the cook hasn't learned how to slide the spatula under the edge of the cooked egg. Pity the poor family members who are expecting a decently fried egg and end up with that botched, hacked up mess that seems a total impossibility without the wonder pan being sold. ;-) -- BessieBee "The pessimist see difficulty in every opportunity.
