having problems peeling their hard boiled eggs without them looking "ugly". I used to hate making deviled eggs because every time I
tried to peel the eggs, they ended up looking awful, with chunks of egg missing, etc. Well, I was reading about how to peel "perfect" eggs every time
(I don't remember where I read it), so I decided to try it and now I make deviled eggs all the time, and I never have a problem peeling them---they DO come
out perfectly, each and every one of them! Put your eggs in a pot of cold water, pour about 1/4 cup of white vinegar into the water. Boil until done---I
usually boil mine about 20-30 minutes on medium heat, partially covered. Pour off water, turn on cold water and let it run over eggs until they are cool enough
to handle. Take an egg and tap the SMALL end on the counter, hard enough to start peeling. Apparently there is an "air pocket" on the small end and
when you break the air pocket, the rest of the peel slides off easily. It works for me every time. The egg peel comes off easily and I never have a problem
with pieces of the egg coming off with it. I lay the peeled egg on a paper towel until I'm done peeling all of them, blot them dry and cut them lengthwise
and take out the yolk, put them in a bowl and add whatever ingredients I choose. I never make mine the same. I love to try new ingredients in my deviled eggs.
One of my favorites is a small can of green chilies and a tiny jar of pimientos. I top my egg halves with either sliced black or green olives.
