🥄 Pro Tips for Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs

Use older eggs: Fresh eggs are harder to peel. If possible, use eggs that are 7–10 days old.
Crack before chilling: For even easier peeling, gently crack the shell before dropping the eggs into the ice bath.
Peel under water: Running water or a bowl of water helps separate the shell from the egg white.
Store smart: Unpeeled hard-boiled eggs can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. Peeled eggs should be eaten within 2–3 days for best freshness.
