Have you every tried to peel an egg, only to end up with bits and pieces of the shell stuck to the egg? Do your hardboiled eggs end up dimpled? This was always a problem for me, especially when boiling eggs for deviled eggs. Dimpled eggs aren’t pretty. I learned a trick that makes hardboiled eggs easy to peel! You will have beautiful hardboiled eggs when they get an ice-water bath. When eggs are easy to peel, even picky eaters will be able to peel their own eggs, making them more interesting to eat!

Boil eggs the failsafe way:
1. Cover eggs with two inches of cold water in a pan.
2. Bring to a full boil. Place the lid on the pan and turn the heat off. Wait twenty minutes.
3. Remove eggs from the hot water with a slotted spoon. Immediately place in an ice water bath. Allow to fully cool. Then remove the eggs from the ice-water and pat dry.

Ensure an easy peel, give your hardboiled eggs an ice water bath.
