Fresh eggs cooked in an instant pot peel really well. My friend gave me this tip, and it works. No more waiting to age eggs before making boiled ones. If you want to know, place eggs on trivet, add a cup of water, set time for 5 min.(6 for bigger ones). When time is up, let sit for 5 more min. Then release pressure and plunge in iced water. Peel as usual when they are cool enough to handle.Water is hot and egg is cold? I always put my eggs in the cool water and then add flame or my eggs will burst. But if this is how you have always done it and never had a problem then I'd lean towards a thinner shell? Fresh egg? I know if my eggs are too fresh they are kind of a pain to peel.
