With a few simple tricks, chefs share how to peel boiled eggs quickly and easily without worrying about cracking or breaking. The video has attracted thousands of views.
First, you will gently tap a small crack in the bottom of the egg before boiling it. The force of the tap should be moderate so that only a small crack forms at the bottom. Then, cook the egg as usual. Next, remove the boiled egg and place it in a bowl filled with ice water, and let it sit for a while.
Finally, when removing the egg from the ice bowl, simply squeeze the bottom of the egg that is not cracked, and the egg inside will gently “pop” out without having to peel each layer of the shell. The finished boiled egg will not have any cracks or breakage.
