No gadget needed here. The secret to good, easy to peel hard-boiled eggs is always to use FRESH eggs. Simply put them in a covered pan with enough water to cover them, bring to boil, turn off the burner and let them sit for 20 min. After 20 min. run cold water over them to cool the eggs. There is an air pocket at the large end of the egg & that is where to start peeling; shell comes off easily. AND no rubbery hard boiled eggs.
Yeah I know how to hard boil eggs... I have to tel ya though... Lol
My mother in law... She's 87 yrs old... She doesn't do them this way. Lol
She about bit my head off the other day...lol
She does her eggs like you.. Till the boiling.
Once they are in the rolling boil stage.. She turns them off. Then let's them sit in pan till they cool.
I about died...couldn't believe how upset she got.. Lol
****she also has this pokey gadget. It pokes a tiny hole in the egg... She swears by this.
I think it's the eggs!!!!!!
No matter how we cook these eggs... They don't peel correctly.... It is like there's no membrane...and the shells are so thin. You can't get under the shell... It rips the egg... I'm so giving up on the old perfect peeled eggs..

It might be the brand Walmart carries. The eggs are fine... They are also fresh... It's the blasted shell.
Lol... Wow.. I can't believe how eggs can make or brake your day.... Lol.
