Cool Tip: The Incredible Peelable Egg

Peelable Egg

Nearly as elusive as the search for true love, an honest man, or the perfect pair of jeans is the search for a hard-cooked egg that is consistently easy to peel.  Today that search is over. 

Here is the answer:  Steam it! 

That's right, instead of boiling, covering, turning off the heat, etc., put your eggs in a steamer over simmering water, cover and steam for 15 minutes, then put them in an ice water bath for 15 minutes, and Voila!--perfect hard-cooked eggs that peel like a dream.

Enjoy!
