With this TikTok hack, peel a boiled egg in no time

We’ve already shared our love for deviled eggs, because they rank high on our list of the very best retro party snacks. By the way, try them with furikake, an amazing Japanese spice blend. The only less enjoyable thing about making deviled eggs is the never-ending peeling of the eggs…

Because if your eggs are just a little too fresh or not quite cooked properly, peeling can be an annoying chore. Pieces of shell that keep sticking and can only be removed by picking at your beautiful, smooth egg until it’s dented—such a shame. But this TikToker has a solution for that—just take a look!

It does require a rather nerve-racking tap of the raw egg on the counter to create exactly the right crack… But living a little on the edge in your kitchen with an egg may well be one of the most adventurous things you’ll experience in these times! One fan of the trick says it works best for her when she manages to make the crack look like a spiderweb. What do you think—should we try it? Go for it!
