  I don’t like hard boiled eggs. I prefer medium-soft (slightly runny on up to jelly-like yolk; used to make ajitsuke tamago) which are harder to peel than hard boiled eggs due to softer whites.

  When I boil eggs I poke a hole in the bottom (blunt end) before boiling and then after chilling in cold water I crack the blunt end to begin peeling. Since the blunt end has an air pocket this technique makes it easy to begin peeling.

    Good to know, but there was no removing my frustration at the moment of the half dozen I made.

      Oh yeah. I only boil 2 eggs at a time now.

  Boiled eggs are the worst eggs anyway

  But this can be generalised to if anything was as hard as the hardest time we did it we would do it less.

    Additionally, it’s not true at all. Like, when I was a junior dev, everything was new and hard. Now I do stuff much harder than was the hardest I did back then.

  But hard boiled eggs are not hard to peel? Just run them under cold water for a few seconds after boiling

    Also put a teaspoon of vinegar into the water you boil them in.

    Age matters too. Older eggs are easier to peel.

      Serms to be the only reason. Have tried tons of different ways, like vinegar in the water etc etc

      If the egg is hard to peel, you can slide in a coffee spoon between the egg and the shell (make an attempt to peel it first ofc) and then just slide the spoon around and voilà! Egg peeled.

  Because we can’t invent Tools either? You do know we eat coconuts and they are significantly harder to open.

  And if they didn’t smell like someone just ripped ass, I’d probably start eating them

    I suggest you try soft or medium eggs.

    You could also learn to properly cook them.

      It was a bad day for America when schools stopped teaching home ec. We once had a friend live with us for a couple months who cooked eggs in a Saucier (sauce pan) full of oil. She kept the pan on the stove and every morning she would reheat the oil and essentially poach 2 eggs in a half a gallon of oil.

  This is an amazing shower thought.
