Hard Boiled Egg Techniques

I know everyone has there own way of boiling eggs, but Im looking for a way that I can boil a few eggs on Sunday and have them throughout the week. So I need a recipe that allows easy peeling after a few days of refigeration.

I didnt know there was a technique to boiling an egg? How much time are you spending peeling one lol?

Forget special boiling techniques, you need the Eggstractor. LINK
Yes, it's an egg peeler. LOL.

Seriously? It can be one of the more irritating tasks in the kitchen when it doesn't peel cleanly.
And when it peels easily and without that membrane still clinging to it, it's a beautiful thing.

I recently read about steaming eggs, so I gave it a try a few weeks back. I've never peeled eggs faster. I'll never go back to boiling.

I boil a bunch quite often to have around. I peel them after I boil them and keep them peeled in a ziploc bag. That way, I can grab and go, though they don't take long to peel.
I boiled some fresh farm eggs a few times and they were hell to peel. They looked mangled by the time I was done. Never again.

Those preboiled, peeled eggs sold in bulk bags creep me out. Seems like they'd be ground zero for any foodborne illness. At least the already-boiled, still in shell eggs on the counter at the convenience store have retained their protective coating.

I put my boneless chicken in a pot and cover with cool water, bring to a boil, shut off heat and cover. 15 minutes perfect boiled with no green ring on yolk.
At 6 minutes a nice runny yolk.

Kenji at serious eats did a bunch of tests on this.
Basically he found that you steam eggs (6 minutes for soft boiled, 10 minutes for hardboiled). Put the eggs onto a steamer rack in an already boiling/steaming pot and cover (hot start > cold start). When you remove them put them immediately into a bowl of ice water.
It works really well for soft boiled, though I prefer a little over 6 minutes. I don't do hard boiled that often, but when I ahve they are easily peeled.

Boneless chicken. Cackle fruit.
An egg. A chicken egg isn't boneless chicken?

When you're in Martiniland, I guess anything is possible.
