this picture represents my contained rage when I, again, fuck up preparing hard boiled eggs, and peel off the entire white along with the shell like an amateur paleontologist.

Egg white sticks to the shell if the eggs are too fresh. Let them sit for 7-10 day or more, the shell should come off easily then.

Yes. It also helps to put them into ice water directly after boiling

This ^^ Run them under the cold tap. Roll or crack egg in a few places. The membrane will come off with shell in one piece

What is the best condiment to put on some hard boiled eggs?

I like plain table salt.

>> No.11047723

>>11047718
salt+spicy paprika

>> No.11047727

Slap them down on a clean counter and roll it under your palm to break apart the shell easier.

Also just try experimenting on how long youput them in for.

Foolproof, even-a-retarded-incel-shut-in-like-OP-can't-fuck-this-up recipe for hardboiled eggs.

>Boil a large pot of water
>Add eggs, set timer for one minute
>After that one minute, drop the heat to the lowest it'll go, put the lid on
>Leave the eggs for 12 minutes for hard boiled
>After 12 minutes, remove the eggs, add to the ice bath
>Wait a half hour, peel

It is L I T E R A L L Y impossible to fuck this up. I've done it dozens of times with the same result each time.

Yet you haven't taken into account if they are stored in the fridge or not. 12 minutes is too long. They must be like bullets.

Test an egg is done by taking it out on a spoon and 8f it dries immediately its done.

I had assumed they were stored in the fridge. If you're outside the US then you'll have to account for them being room temperature.

>boiled egg for 15-20 minutes
that's pretty long, they're usually fully cooked at 10-12 minutes. do you think he has hearing problems because of his ears?

also that's only really a good idea if nobody else is going to be eating the eggs, most people don't want you breathing on and possibly getting spit on their food.

Ok. Sorry. My bad. Im in europe but store them in fridge. I put them in cold water but only start timing when water boils. 4 mins for runny, 5 for soft and 6 for hard. 12 mins makes sense if it takes 6 mins to boil the water.

It never occurred to me that OP might be making hard boiled eggs for anybody but himself.

Yeah 15-20 minutes sounds like a long time

Roll the egg on a surface, pick a tiny hole on the top, and a bigger hole on the bottom, blow really hard and the whole egg shoots out

Once I forgot I put eggs in water and went and watched a movie. After like 45 mins I heard the stove click and realized I forgot my eggs. All the water had evaporated and the eggs were just burning the shells in a hot pan.

Still ate them tho.

Take your eggs out of the fucking fridge and let them warm up a bit before boiling them, m8.
