With this simple trick, you’ll peel eggs mega-easily
You think you’ve cooked a nice egg, but half of it sticks to the shell while peeling. Mega annoying of course, but fortunately there seems to be an easy trick. This way you can peel your eggs super fast and you will never again be bothered by an egg that breaks while peeling.
Lifehack
All you need to make sure you can peel your egg easily is a spoon. Before bringing your egg to a boil, hit the shell of the egg with the rounded side of the spoon. Be careful not to hit too hard, as the shell of the egg should not break. The idea is that you should hear something inside the egg break. When you hear that, you will hear the membrane of your egg release from the shell. You may have to tap several times before you hear the membrane release.
After you’ve done this, you can just cook your egg as you normally would. Peeling the skin is now a lot easier and there is no more annoying skin around the egg either.
White eggs
Is this trick not quite for you? Fortunately, there are still a few things you can try. For example, add a little salt or a tablespoon of baking soda to the cooking water. You can also buy white eggs down the road. This is because these are generally easier to peel. After boiling the eggs, you can hold them under the cold tap for a while or put them in a bowl with ice cubes and water.
Egg super fast peeling
Another lifehack is to put your egg in a glass with a layer of water, hold your hand on top of the glass and shake it vigorously. This will loosen the shell and this way you can remove the shell from your egg after just a few seconds. If you try this hack, it is important that your egg is still warm and the water in the glass is cold. Super handy and mega fast!
