Hard Boiled Eggs

[bhkrempa]

Am having trouble peeling hard-boiled eggs from our girls. It seems that the fresher the egg, the harder it is to peel. Any tricks? Thanks

i let the water boil then add salt it works for me

Older eggs usually work better.
It sounds strange, but our green ones usually peel better. It might just be our birds.

I found the best way was adding the eggs to boiling water and then put them in ice water to cool the best of all of those.
