Ingredients
- 1 hard boiled eggs
Instructions
- Once the hard boiled eggs finish cooking, transfer them immediately to a bowl of ice water and allow them to sit for 5 minutes to fully cool. This also makes the eggs easier to peel.
- Tap one egg gently on a hard surface to loosen the shell. If needed, you can also gently roll the egg between your palm and the countertop.
- Hold the egg in one hand and gently peel away the shell from the cracked area all around the egg.
- Continue peeling until all the shell is removed. If any small shell fragments are difficult to remove, rinse the egg under running water to remove.
- Repeat with the remaining eggs.
