We love eating hard boiled eggs and struggle at times with peeling them. I set out to experiment on a way to make the eggs peel easier. I am happy to share this handy and simple method to help make your hard boiled eggs peel easier.

I have been using this method for several weeks now and excited to report that it really does work. Your eggs will peel easier and the shells will be softer after boiling. Here are the simple steps to follow for fast and easy egg peeling.

Place eggs in a sauce pan and cover with water. Add a dash of salt and 2 tablespoons of white vinegar per quart of water. I used about 2 tablespoons of vinegar in this saucepan shown. I will admit that I don’t actually measure the vinegar and just eye-ball it.

Boil eggs as you normally do for hard boiled eggs. Rinse in cold water after cooking. The results are that your shells are much softer using the vinegar and do peel much easier.

I hope you will try this useful idea. Let me know your results.
