Ingredients:
-4β6 eggs
-Water
-Β½ teaspoon baking soda (optional)
-Ice or very cold water
Instructions:
1οΈβ£ Place the eggs in a pot
Put the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water (about 1 inch / 2β3 cm above the eggs).
2οΈβ£ Boil the eggs
Bring the water to a boil over medium heat.
Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat and cook the eggs for 10 minutes.
3οΈβ£ Ice bath
Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and leave them for 5 minutes.
This helps the shells come off easily.
π₯ How to Peel the Eggs Without Damaging Them
4οΈβ£ Tap the egg gently on a table to crack the shell.
5οΈβ£ Roll the egg lightly with your hand to loosen the shell.
6οΈβ£ Start peeling from the wider end (where the air pocket is).
The shell should slide off easily and the egg will stay smooth and perfect.
β Tip:
Eggs that are a few days old peel much easier than very fresh eggs.
