How to Make Easy Peel Hard Boiled Eggs and Fermented Eggs

Hard-boiled eggs are a staple in many households, but they can be a pain to peel. If you're tired of struggling with stubborn shells, this blog post is for you! We'll show you how to make easy-peel hard-boiled eggs every time, plus we'll share a recipe for fermented eggs that are a delicious and nutritious way to enjoy this versatile food.

How to Make Easy Peel Hard Boiled Eggs

  1. Start with fresh eggs. Older eggs are more likely to have tough shells that are difficult to peel.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add enough water to cover the eggs by about an inch.
  3. Add the eggs to the boiling water. Use a slotted spoon to carefully lower the eggs into the water. Be careful not to crack the shells.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the eggs for 10-12 minutes. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the eggs. For larger eggs, cook for 12 minutes. For smaller eggs, cook for 10 minutes.
  5. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath. This will stop the cooking process and help the shells to peel easily.
  6. Let the eggs cool for at least 5 minutes before peeling. This will make them easier to handle and prevent the yolks from breaking.
  7. To peel the eggs, start by cracking the shell all over. Then, gently roll the egg between your hands to loosen the shell. Finally, peel the shell away from the egg.

Fermented Eggs Recipe

Fermented eggs are a delicious and nutritious way to enjoy hard-boiled eggs. They're also a great way to preserve eggs for long periods of time.

Ingredients:

  • 1 dozen hard-boiled eggs
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the water, vinegar, salt, sugar, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. Add the hard-boiled eggs to the bowl and stir to coat.
  3. Cover the bowl and let the eggs ferment at room temperature for 5-7 days. Stir the eggs once or twice a day.
  4. After 5-7 days, the eggs will be fermented and ready to eat. Store the eggs in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.

Tips for Making Fermented Eggs

  • Use fresh eggs for the best results.
  • Be sure to hard-boil the eggs for the correct amount of time. Undercooked eggs are more likely to spoil during fermentation.
  • Keep the eggs submerged in the brine during fermentation. This will help to prevent them from spoiling.
  • Stir the eggs once or twice a day during fermentation. This will help to distribute the flavors and prevent the eggs from sticking together.
  • Fermented eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
