[QUOTE="Star*, post: 278952, member: 4964"] Here's some egg facts - I didn't know about the sink test so I'll add it to the list. (thanks) To peel eggs that you boil? Take them from the boiling water - do not dump the water out - but set the pot in the sink and run tepid water, then cooler. Less crack that way AND .......to peel? The best way I've ever found is to use a Tablespoon pop the egg on the top under running water and use the spoon facing the egg to pop the shell off. No picking - This works if the eggs are cooled or not - but better when they are a little warm. My girlfriends saw me doing this in the kitchen one day because I got so tired of little splinters of egg shell under my nails....and it works like a charm - I get more of the whole peel off in one turn of the spoon. Also if you add a little salt to the water before it boils it helps. AND to tell if they are boiled - take a test egg out of the boiling water - and with it on it's side spin it. If it spins? It's boiled. If it wobbles - it is a fresh egg. [/QUOTE]
