How to peel eggshells

Often carelessly, at this moment, the eggshell is peeled off, and protein also falls off, leaving only boiled eggs with uneven surfaces. What can we do? We can tap the newly cooked eggs a few times and then soak them in ice water, which will make it easier to succeed in eggshell peeling.

In addition, after the bought eggs are left for one week, water will be lost from the pores of the eggshell, the air chamber inside will become larger, and the pH value of protein will also change, so that it will not stick to the eggshell.

Next, let's take a look at the detailed method of boiling eggs.

Materials:

Take out six cold eggs from the refrigerator.

cold water

ice cake

Exercise:

Put the eggs in the pot and pour in cold water. The height of water is one inch (2.54 cm) higher than that of eggs.

Heat and boil over high fire, without covering the lid.

When the water boils, remove the pot from the fire and cover it. If you let the water boil for too long, the eggs will be overcooked!

Put the eggs in water for a period of time. How long will it take? Refer to the following (the specific time is mainly based on the actual cooking situation):

Egg yolk and egg white are still in the water. Boiled eggs: 3 minutes.

Soft egg: 4 minutes.

Boiled eggs with yolk like custard: 6 minutes.

Boiled eggs with still dense yolk: 10 minutes.

Hard boiled eggs: 15 minutes

You can take the eggs out with a spoon then. Tap the eggs along the counter to shell them. If your boiled eggs are tender and half-cooked, skip this step.

Put the eggs in a bowl filled with ice water for at least 1 min.

Peel off the eggshell and it's done!
