Well, not really that hard. I simmer them for 6 minutes so the yolk is still moist and then put them directly into an ice bath. But peeling them can be a nightmare. Sometimes the shell and membrane peel right off with minimal effort. Other times large chunks of egg white come off with the shell and sections of invisible membrane stay stuck to the egg. I've tried a few tricks: poking a hole in the raw egg with a thumbtack, adding a little vinegar to the water and using eggs that are not too fresh. I still get very inconsistent results even within the same package and sometimes the same batch.
I don't remember having this issue as a kid, maybe because my mom boiled eggs for 10 minutes or more until the yolks were gray and chalky. Has anyone found a sure fire method to peel hard boiled eggs easily?
