Anyone like hard boiled eggs but hate peeling them? Then try this.

I can't do it like that. So what i do is use a small jar with a lid thats screwed on it,it's less messy that way for me. Let the water lift the shell from the egg for you.

It takes a little practice or at least it did for me but sure beats doing it the old way.

Sweet. I need to try that!

peeling them is half the fun.. it, like, reminds you of the struggles of your ancestors and stuff... or something..

Would a Gerber baby food jar be the right size, or is it too short? Looks great in the video, hope it works that well for me.

The baby food jar may be to short. But try it and see.

I use a small Smuckers jelly jar. I believe it is 18 0z. 5'' tall.

I get mixed results when i put the egg in the jar with water and shake it. Sometimes the shell comes off completely by its self and sometimes i have to give a little pull and the shell unravels all in one piece. It still beats doing it the old way. I've found i eat a lot more hard boiled eggs now than i ever did,so i would say it works good enough.

With the water shortage we have here in California not recommended to do this..

I cook the eggs for 11 minutes in my Nuwave oven without any water at all and they come out just like if they were boiled in water. So there is very little water wasted doing this only a few ounces in the jar to shake and peel the eggs in.

I wouldn't want to live in a state that has a water shortage,that must really suk.
