If the hard-boiled eggs are close to the shell, you can use water to peel them easily. Try soaking the eggs in cold water for about an hour and holding the eggs under running water while peeling. Next time, to keep the eggs from sticking to the shell, try using vinegar and salt or baking soda when boiling the eggs. With a little lubricant, you can easily peel the most difficult eggs.
Steps
Soak boiled eggs in water

Fill the plastic bowl 2/3 full with cold water. Turn on the faucet and make sure the water is cool. Place the plastic bowl under running water until it is 2/3 full and turn off the faucet. [1] X Research Source
- Cold eggs are easier to peel, as the whites shrink and separate from the shell.
Drop the eggs into the bowl so that they are completely submerged in the water. After boiling the eggs and letting them cool for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, soak them in water to make them easier to peel. You can use a plastic bowl to soak the eggs or use another container if one bowl is not enough to soak all the eggs. No need to cover! Eggs soaked in water will cool without a lid. [2] X Research Source
- You can pour less water if the water rises to the edge of the bowl.

Place the eggs in the refrigerator for about 1 hour. Cool temperatures in the refrigerator will cool the water and make the shells easier to peel. You will easily peel the egg after about 1 hour. Hard-boiled eggs can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. [3] X Research Sources
- When soaked in cold water, the egg will separate from the shell and you can easily peel it off.
Use your hands to peel the eggs so that the shells are clean. After soaking the eggs in cold water for a while, take them out of the refrigerator and pour the water away. Use a spatula to knock the eggshells apart, then use your fingers to peel off the crumbs. [4] X Research Sources
- Once you have peeled off part of the peel, you can peel off the rest easily.
Peel eggs under running water
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e0/Peel-a-Difficult-Hard-Boiled-Egg-Step-5-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px- Peel-a-Difficult-Hard-Boiled-Egg-Step-5-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e0/Peel-a- Difficult-Hard-Boiled-Egg-Step-5-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Peel-a-Difficult-Hard-Boiled-Egg-Step-5-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Turn on the faucet and let the cold water run for about 15 seconds. Cold water will cause the egg whites to shrink and come out of the shell more easily. To use cold water, you should let the water run for a few seconds for the water to adjust to the temperature. [5] X Research Sources
- The water doesn’t need to be as cold as ice, but the colder it gets, the easier it is to peel an egg.
- You should wash all the dishes placed in the sink and clean the sink with a sponge and soap.
Hold the egg under the tap for about 5-15 seconds. Hold the hard-boiled egg in the palm of your hand and catch it under the faucet. Let the water run over the egg for about 15 seconds. [6] X Research Source
- You can leave the eggs under the tap for as long or as quickly as you like. The egg will adapt to the new temperature under the tap.
Tap the big end of the egg into the sink 1-3 times and start peeling. After holding the egg under running water for a few seconds, knock the egg in the sink a few times. It’s best to tap the big end of the egg. The eggshell will break open, and you will be able to peel it off easily. [7] X Research Sources
- You can also tap the egg on the edge of the faucet. Remove the egg from the running water and tap the large end of the egg into the faucet.
Peel the egg starting from the big end of the egg. The bottom of the egg is slightly larger than the top and is easier to peel because of the larger area. Peel the part of the shell that you just knocked in, use your fingers to peel the egg, and collect the egg under the tap while peeling. [8] X Research Sources
- Since eggshells will come off easily in water, you’ll be able to peel even the most difficult-to-peel hard-boiled eggs.

Collect the eggshells and throw them in the compost bin or trash. Turn off the faucet and place the eggs in a plate or bowl, then collect the eggshell pieces in the sink. Eggshells make great compost, so throw them in the compost bin! If you don’t have a compost bin, just throw the eggshells in the trash.
- It is best to use a strainer basket at the bottom of the sink to prevent eggshells from entering the drain.
- If you have a shredder, you can turn it on to remove any eggshells that fall into the drain.
So that the boiled eggs do not come close to the shell
Boil eggs with ¼ cup (60 ml) vinegar and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat, then pour the vinegar and salt into the pot. You can put the ingredients in the pot when the water starts to bubble. [9] X Research Source
- These ingredients help separate the eggshell from the egg, and you can peel it off easily, even hard-to-peel eggs.

Try adding a little baking soda to the boiling water if you don’t have vinegar. Instead of vinegar and salt, you can also use baking soda to make peeling eggs easier. Pour about 1 quart of water into the pot and add 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of baking soda when the water begins to boil. [10] X Research Source
- The baking soda will soak into the egg, loosening the bond between the egg white and the membrane of the eggshell.

Use a needle to prick the eggs before boiling to make them easier to peel. Before boiling eggs, you should poke a hole in the egg so that more water penetrates the egg, making the shell easier to peel. You can use a pin or a pin to make the hole. Hold the egg in one hand, the other hand hold a needle to gently push through the eggshell and gently place the egg in the pot of boiling water. [11] X Research Source
- More water in the egg will help the egg white separate from the membrane of the eggshell.
- Be careful when poking the hole to avoid breaking the eggshell.

Place eggs under cool running water to prevent them from overcooking. Eggs can continue to cook even after turning off the heat. To prevent the eggs from overcooking, soak them in cold water immediately after boiling. If you overcook the eggs, the eggs will start to hatch and become difficult to peel. [12] X Research Source
- Another way is to put ice in the bowl and put the eggs in, then let the bowl of eggs in the fridge for at least 1 hour before peeling.
Warning
- Be careful with sharp pieces of eggshell. Sometimes sharp and sharp corners can scratch hands or poke fingers.
