If you need easy-to-peel eggs and you have fresh eggs, you might want to try steaming the eggs for 15 minutes. Pour an inch of water into a pot and insert a steamer basket.Bring to a boil. Place the eggs in the steamer basket, cover and steam for 15 minutes (more or less, check!).
Place your eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. There should be about two inches of water over the top of the eggs. Add a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to the water, then bring the pan to a gentle simmer and cook for approximately 12 minutes. Start the peeling process from an end of the egg, not the side. 2  Put salt in the water before boiling. 3  The eggs will be easier to peel as the salt stops the egg from leaking out if the egg cracks while boiling and adds to the flavor too. 4  Don't over-boil the egg.
