HArd Boiled Eggs, what does it mean when the shells are sticking to the egg and pulling it apart?!


Question: Are they too hot? Too cold? or did I cook them too long?


Answers: Are they too hot? Too cold? or did I cook them too long?

Older eggs are used for boiling and peeling. Another trick is to boil your eggs, cool in ice water thoroughly, then crack and peel; this helps but no guarantee you'll peel all of them smoothly. Something else to try is boil the eggs one day, cool, and store unpeeled in a baggie/covered bowl in the fridge; peel the next day.

It actually means that your eggs are too fresh. For some reason, eggs that are closer to the expiration date peel more easily when boiled. I never boil fresh eggs for this reason. It is a PAIN!!!

Normally, it means the eggs are very fresh. Just crack their shells a little more, set in cold water then peel carefully.

it usually means the egg is too fresh
