    Shock it in an ice bath immediately after removing from the boiling water. This helps the membrane between the shell and the rest of the egg peel away easier.

    Another method I’ve seen recently says to add like half a cup of vinegar to the water you boil them in, tho I have yet to try this one myself. Makes sense tho; dyed easter eggs are usually easier to peel and those are dyed by dipping them in vinegar with dye.

      Also don’t let the water come to a boil with the egg in it. Put eggs directly into boiling water.
