Monday night i tried steaming again and had about the same results as i previously posted (3 of 12 just wouldn't peel), looks like steaming works for some, but not good enough for me to change from my originally posted method. guess there's always more then one way to skin a cat and what works...

seams you've got a bit of a smart alec attitude in that response or maybe you've just been drinking tonight? either way at 4 thousand feet above sea level i assure you that anything being boiled or cooked will have a very different outcome than if they are cooked at the same as if they are at...

I boil bantam and LF eggs together, 12 min and none come out with the green ring or have an overlooked taste, I'm only 311' ASL and altitude can make all sorts of crazy differences when cooking so yours may be different.

Yes, those are quail eggs, bantam eggs i boil for 12 min, same as any size chicken egg and it's never been a problem.

i didn't steam them, just used my previously posted way on some quail eggs straight out of the hens today i didn't steam them as i had no idea on time frame so i used my previously posted procedure on quail eggs straight out of the hens today for pickled eggs, added to boiling water for 5...

for some reason one 'cracked' while steaming!! cracked or not, it pealed easy enough after a dip in the ice bath. while not like pealing an apple, 5 of 6 pealed with ease. however one of them was 'Stuck Like Glue' 20 min was perfect timing, firm yolk without overcooking...

i've never had any problems with the way i've posted but i'm always willing to give new things a try so i'll let ya know in about 20 min how it worked for me!!

you're welcome!! let us know how it works for you.

it works great, and a slotted spoon if you're only doing a 1/2 dozen or so.

if you want to do a big pot you add them with a sieve, it keeps you from dropping them in and cracking them or splashing the hot water out on you.

that is a very likely reason for your lack of success!!! adding a lid to your pots to increase the pressure and temp at which your water actually boils may help considerably.

with your lack of success it could be altitude related, what elevation are you at?

with fresh eggs, add them to water that is already boiling, drop them in with a slotted spoon, 12 min later (for hard boiled) remove them run under cold water and place in an ice bath for 5 min, the shells fall off. and the best part at just 5 min in the ice bath they are still warm in the...
