This really does work, and it works perfectly! I use a lot of hard boiled eggs, so now that the chooks are laying, I needed to find out how to do it with fresh eggs. . . I have NEVER had eggs peel so easily, and not one cracked shell, either!

I never have any problems peeling any of my eggs that I hard boil. Boiling eggs for 14 to 15 minutes seems a bit long though. I bring the water to a boil and gently ladel the eggs into the water, like others have said, and allow them to boil for 8 minutes before I take them off of the heat and run cold water over them allowing them to cool quickly. My eggs are allways cooked through.

Is this with fresh or store bought ?.. If I do the 14 mins with storebought they are green inside... If I do my own eggs they are perfect with the 14 mins..
