>sticks to the shell ruining your day
fuck eggs

Run it under cold water while you peel it.

run it under hot rice while you eat it

>>21512944 (OP)
you need to soak it and let it fully cool down. at least 30 minutes. that's the trick. it isn't to use old eggs or to shock it in some ritualistic way.
anyone who says otherwise is an idiot or works for big chicken and doesn't want you taking their eggs

>>21512944 (OP)
Starting eggs in cold water always made them stick for me. Never had any issues if I boiled the water before adding the eggs.

Run around naked while you heat it

>>21512944 (OP)
Cook from a boil, and shock in ice water, not just cold water.

>>21512944 (OP)
Skill issue, cook eggs better.

Into boiling, outto ice water. None of this boil the water and turn it off crap. None of this put in cold water and bring to boil. Just all boil, then all ice.

sir, are you dumb?

>>21512944 (OP)
This is like a child safety lock and you failed, you cave man.

>>21512968
and end up with double-cooked eggs? are you mad?

>>21512999
A quick bath to cool them down is not ”””””””soaking””””””””

>>21513033
so your complaint is the amount of time they spend in cold water?
god you're fucking stupid. are you black? because you sound like some dumb gorilla jogger who doesn't know how to read.

>>21512944 (OP)
>>21512944 (OP)
i pressure steam them in Instapot, then shock in ice bath. best peeling eggs i have seen. and its fast.

I keep trying to convince my wife to let me put hard boiled eggs in her ass so she can shit them out while I watch. She is worried they will "get stuck" and not come out. Any advice anons?

A quick cramming will help with removing the shell. The heat from your ass releases the shell.

>>21512944 (OP)
>Didn't take out the frustration on imperfect egg and devour the smashed remains whole.
This is how you fail to live up the standard.

>>21512944 (OP)
Just eat the shell bitch

>>21513050
film yourself sticking them up your own ass and shitting them out and then post the video on 4chan so she knows it's ok

>>21512944 (OP)
You want to separate the membrane from the egg white, you do that by moving it from boiling water to cold water for a minute or so.

>>21512944 (OP)
Boiling is the worst way to cook an egg. It tastes like shit (even soft-boiled) and has a terrible texture as well.
You did this to yourself.

>>21513050
Unless you are going to eat them after, thats a waste of eggs. You need to eat the eggs, all of them.

>>21513117
Autism, like actually

imagine letting an egg ruin your day. What a fucking loser.

>>21513039
My complaint is that you think soaking eggs in water does literally anything, retard.

>>21513279
It cools them down retard. It's the exact same thing as using ice. You are a dumber than dumb gorilla nigger who needs to be put in a cage.

>>21512953
>>21512971
>>21512987
>>21513033
Retards holding on to old wives tales.

Peirce the bottom of the egg with a needle (or a unitasker if you feel the need to) and you'll get perfect boiled eggs everytime

>>21513292
So wrong on every possible level

>>21512944 (OP)
Put it in ice water after boiling to cool it down quickly.

>>21512944 (OP)
Use a spoon, dumdum

>>21513307
Fuck you, you don't know shit

Everytime you fuck up your eggs with your ice water bullshit you'll be reminded of this post. For the rest of your life you will remember. That's your curse now.

>>21513400
Learn the difference between "everytime" and "every time" dumbass

>>21513292
The point of poking a hole in the egg is so it won't explode. It doesn't make peeling it any easier. Ice to shock the membrane is the best way but throwing it into cold water works most of the time.
>>21513346
I can't even hate, that dude is clean with it

>>21513292
It's not an old wives tale, it works and you'd know that if you weren't a retarded faggot

>>21513400
>oh no, the shell comes off so easily, I must now fuck this egg
Terrible curse. Kys.

He's the traditional archenemy of the Surly King of the Egg Fort. Life on the mean streets ain't easy, but he values his freedom; the egg king has sacrificed freedom for security in his fortress of eggitude.

>>21513346
This. Ever since I started using a spoon my eggs have been cleanly peeled 100% of the time with no sticking

>>21512972
I recently started doing this again and it has resolved the issue.

>>21513117
Boiled eggs are my favorite except for poached eggs.
Fried eggs, omelettes, and scrambled are for the birds.

>>21513346
>the egg is fucking green inside

I laugh at every single one of you.

>>21512944 (OP)
Crack the egg before you boil it, that way as its cooking water can be separating the membrane from the shell. I do it by holding the egg in my fist with a wooden spoon at the bottom and tap the counter, puts a small crack in and good to go.

>>21513685
Nah because then the egg whites explode through the shell while youbare cooking it and you have weird egg meat lumps oozing out of your egg.
I use an egg cooker usually and yeah, the hole at the bottom helps, then I let them sit in some cool water for a couple minutes and it works fine 90% of the time. Ill still get one every now and then though that doesnt cooperate.

>>21513346
What is this African egg magic!!??

>>21513747
A guy peeled an egg. Get a fucking grip.

>>21513292
Pierce the needle on your temple because you're ass backwards retarded

If you eat too many eggs people gonna think you're jewish

I know a lot of you hate Kenji but his "technique" for boiled eggs is immaculate, the shells comes off in huge chunks like you were peeling a orange, it's perfect
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb0Elaa6gxY

>>21513872
>boiled eggs :|
>boiled eggs, by Kenji :O

>>21513913
eggs that you can peel under 5 seconds makes me go :O, yeah

>>21513917
How the fuck is his "technique" different from regular boiling?

>>21513929
>using only an inch of water instead of completely submerging the eggs in water
>once boiled, lightly tap both ends of the egg to crack it
>roll the egg under the palm of your hand on the table while applying light pressure, further cracking the shell all over + it helps separating the inner membrane from the whites
The shell comes right off. It just werks.

>>21513050
Your wife is right to fear. Never insert anything into your ass without a flared base.

Eggs do not behave uniformly. You can do it right (boil, then cold shock to shrink) and some still won't peel. Now the real question is if you're going to eat imperfectly peeled eggs like a dog

>>21513050
They made a doujin about you

>>21513400
you can't even afford eggs, dothead. Go die miserably.

>>21513745
No you do not, you crack the shell, not break the membrane.

>>21513049
This. The 5-5-5 method works well.
Five minutes at pressure
Five minutes before pressure release
Five minutes in ice water (I find tap water to work fine).
Very easy to peel 90% of the time.

If your egg is too fresh, it will stick to the shell.
Just us older eggs.

boil 2 eggs for 4 mins
toss the hot water
rinse under cold water in sink
peel, use small spoon if you have thick fingers
worked well for me recently.

Putting the eggs AFTER the water has started boiling did make a difference,thanks guys,been doing it wrong my entire life

>>21512944 (OP)
I just tap it a few times to crack it in several locations, then leave it in a bowl of cold water while I go do other stuff.
The water gets in and loosens up the shell, so that it just plops off easily once you get to peeling.

>>21515751
This.
One large whack to the bottom of the egg, then 3 or 4 taps on the sides.

>>21513642
>2 minute high pressure cook
>quick release immediately
>put eggs in ice bath
Perfect jammy center boiled eggs every time.

>>21513292
This does absolutely nothing

>>21513346
this man is giving surly egg fort man a run for his money

i learned how to avoid this because i have issues.
the other day, i accidentally broke 4 yolks in a row; smashed the pan and locked myself in the bathroom and yelled at the top of my lungs shredding my throat for a few minutes.
any crazy niggas on /ck/?

>>21517092
OP here, this happened to me 4 times in a row before I made this thread so I just smashed all the eggs all over my sink.
Today I had to clean up the mess and disinfect everything with vinegar because the smell was starting to get unbearable.

>>21515751
exactly. the reason why some eggs won't peel is the fucking thin skin layer between the shell and the white part. Some eggs just come with a very hard skin and it's impossible to peel it cleanly.

You can fill a pickle jar half full of water and shake it and then peel if you're looking for a tard proof peeling method.

Git gud eggs and put them water and bring to a boil and cover for 15 min and you won't have this problem

>>21512944 (OP)
Just steam them instead of boiling. Works every time.

t. boiled eggs for 20 years and steamed them for 5.

>>21512944 (OP)
Lately I've been doing 10 minute boil, 10 minute rest off the burner still in the water, replace water then another 10 minutes. They've been peeling pretty successfully honestly and I like a more set hard-boiled egg so it works for me.

Fried eggs -- especially cooked at at high tempretures, oxidizes the cholesterol forming harmful compounds.

Boiled is the better option.

>>21512944 (OP)
While poor, I noticed that when we made hard boiled eggs, the boiled egg came out easily. Fast forward to today, and wf insists on fresh eggs; and sure enough, the boiled egg does not release easily.
Looked it up.. on the web; poor areas have older eggs on the shelves. So if you want easy to release boiled eggs, let the eggs go past the 'best by date'. Use fresh eggs for frying, older eggs for boiling.

>>21517875
oddly enough this is true, fresh eggs are harder to peel

>>21512944 (OP)
Now I want eggs. I have no egg. :(

>>21513292
>old wives tales.
They are called Old Wise Tales idiot.
Because they hold wise knowledge.

place eggs in room temp water
bring to high boil
turn off heat
let sit 10 minutes
dump eggs to icewater bath, lots of ice
wait 10-15 minutes for egg to recoil from shell
peel

i just throw the egg into a cup and roll it around. then i just peel the shell with the membrane. usually works.

I used my big brain to figure out why they don't peel and how to make them peel better. I had some eggs left over after easter. I peeled them and they peeled insanely easy and I noticed that the egg was really hard.
People tell you
>durr run the egg under cold water lol!
but they don't tell you why or for how long. You need to chill the egg for the egg white to harden. The membrane is attached to the egg white and if the egg white is too soft it will rip, if it's hard then it will slide right off. Imagine ripping off a bandaid from your ballsack versus your forehead.

When I boil eggs I let them cool a little and then I put them in the freezer for a few minutes. Wallah, perfectly peeled egg.
If you are not in a hurry then just leave the boiled eggs out. They'll cool down and become peelable themselves.
''People'' telling you to do an ice bath or run it under cold water may be close to having the answer, but they don't know why they are doing it or for how long. People try these methods and they fail because running it under cold water for 20 seconds isn't enough to make the egg white harden.

>>21517132
based. thanks for sharing kek

honest question: what is the point of hardboiled eggs? i've always eaten then scrambled/fried and have never once been curious about boiling them.

>>21519235
Scotch eggs
Potato salad w/egg and bacon
Deviled eggs at a picnic
Egg salad on pumpernickel with watercress

>>21519235
The yolk because extra great

Egg tip:

I struggled with the taste of eggs other than fried and scrambled. Add something to the spoon as you put it in your mouth. I use Avocado, tuna, chicken, various vegetables. Use your imagination.

Steam.

>>21519460
Hot sauce.

>>21513050
just use unflavored gelatin in egg-shaped molds like a normal person

>>21512944 (OP)
pour apple cider vinegar in the water next time you boil eggs

Young man, I’ve told you a thousand times to steam your eggs, and to never boil them! Your older brother Chet never once came to me, crying about eggshells. Because he listened, he was many things but he was no stubborn fool. Of course he’s dead now.

>>21519235
Easy snack for trips, don't need no utensils just crack peel and pop in mouth.
Ramen (though soft-boiled is better)
Pickling, pickled eggs are mwwaah *chef's kiss*, also lets you terrorize roommates with diabolical farts if you're still in college or a poorfag I guess
Less of a hassle cleaning a pot with boiled water (no cleaning) than a egg scramble pan (cleaning and scrub required).
Appeases autism (autistic kids like separated meals, some of my proteges in the past despised scrambled eggs just because they knew how it was made and only wanted whole eggs).

>>21512944 (OP)
The trick is actually to calm your inner pussy and firmly press down on the egg white while you're separating it from the shell. It sounds counterintuitive because obviouslty it feels soft and you'd think pic related would happen but for some fucked up reason it just works and I've never had any problems with the technique.

>>21521514
>you'd think pic related would happen
w-would I?

>>21512944 (OP)
I give my dog a hardboiled egg every day. I've probably peeled thousands at this point. You can never win. There's no trick to it. Even the same eggs cooked in the same batch can peel completely differently.

>egg shell is abundant in Calcium
buy some powdered shell
i do

>>21523596

Yes there is. Steaming. I and others have already said so ITT.

The life of a /ck/let is a difficult one.

Reminder that all advice in this thread is shit and you just have to accept it.
Remembering watching a video listening to some chef who peeled hundreds a day saying there's no real perfect method, some will always just stick.

>>21513346
I have a craving for Doublemint gum now.

I thought the ice water thing was a stupid meme, but after trying they all peeled easily. Usually I have about one in four that won't peel right.

>>21524584
t. never steamed his eggs

>>21525848
And you call them steamed eggs despite the fact they're obviously fried

>>21524584
you're embarrassing yourself

>>21525691
New batch today, all 12 peeled without trouble again. Of course the sample size is still very small, but I don't have enough friends to justify boiling a thousand eggs.

>>21513346
How does he get in!?

>>21513346
I tried this and all I did was take layers of egg off with the spoon, clearly I must hone my egg techniques

>>21512944 (OP)
Bro it's so fucking easy to make it not stick. You just make a micro hole with a needle/pin on the bottom of the egg where the air gap is, it kinda fills itself around with water and the egg separates from the shell. Also because of this the egg is much less likely to crack as well. And if you use ice water to cool them down, it's impossible for them to stick after all of that.

>>21513117
No I disagree, soft boiled eggs with spring onion and mayonaise, true mayonaise, not some american cum are pretty tastey. Also if you marinate soft boiled eggs in soy-vinegar brine you get ramen eggs which are MUALA
