Low-Carb Perfectly Peeled Hard-Boiled Eggs
The foolproof method everyone needs in their kitchen
⭐ Why This Method Works
The secret is simple:
- Start the eggs in boiling water, not cold.
- Shock them immediately in ice water.
- Peel while slightly warm.
This combination helps the membrane release from the egg white — leaving you with picture-perfect eggs every time.
🥣 Ingredients
- Large eggs (as many as you like)
- Water
- Ice
👩🍳 Instructions: The Perfect Peel Method
1. Bring water to a rolling boil
Fill a pot ¾ full and let it boil like it means it.
2. Gently lower the eggs in
Use a spoon or ladle so they don’t crack on contact.
3. Boil for exactly 11 minutes
This gives you firm whites and creamy, fully cooked yolks.
4. Ice bath immediately
Move the eggs straight into a large bowl of ice water.
Let them chill for 5–10 minutes.
5. Peel while slightly warm
Tap gently, roll, and watch the shell slide off effortlessly.
🥚 Tips for Guaranteed Success
- Older eggs peel easier than very fresh eggs.
- Add 1 tsp of baking soda to the water if your eggs are extremely fresh.
- Store in the fridge for up to 7 days.
