I wish I could buy preboiled and peeled eggs, but I live in Canada, and we don't have a trader joes, and our costco doesn't sell them...sigh

Do you have Walmart or Kroger? I have seen them at both of those as well.

I bought this egg cooker on QVC item #K41589 called Eggspress. I love it! Perfect eggs every time! I made so much egg salad in the 3-6 weeks post op. It also makes omelettes and poached eggs.< /p>

Same basic cooking method egg-sept(sorry) drain and shake the daylights out of the pan to crack the shells all over THEN chill in ice cold Water. As the eggs cool, they contract, drawing water into the cracks in the shell and creating a barrier of water between the egg and shell. Some time they just slip right off in one hand. Also, old eggs are best.

After cooking the eggs, my hubby will put the boiled egg into a large (and tall) mug and shake the daylights out of the egg cracking the shell all over thus making it easy to peel. A similar process to what @@DavidOso suggested above. Works every time.

@@CHM is absolutely right about how difficult it is to peel fresh eggs -- that could easily be your problem.

Our toaster also boils and poaches eggs. http://www.amazon.com/West-Bend-TEM4500W-Muffin-Toaster/dp/B008LTIYN2

It comes with a little cup that tells you how much Water to add depending on how you'd like your eggs to be cooked, and at the bottom of the cup there's a sharp pin to prick your eggs if you're wanting to hard boil them. That helps with peeling the shell. My husband's technique is to put a hard boiled egg into a small glass with half an inch of Water, and then vigorously shake the glass for about 30 seconds. He can then peel the shell off in seconds. I have had less success with that method. I just put them in a glass of ice water, and then roll each egg on a hard surface before peeling.

I always sprinkle about 1/4 tsp of salt when they are boiling, and fill the pan with ice when the eggs are done. When the ice melts, they are cool enough to touch, lightly roll the egg on the counter to crush the shell, and it usually peals right off. Then put them back in Water for them to finish cooling

We use this method and they peel easy and always perfect

I bake my bacon too! I put the cooked bacon in the fridge and reheat it a piece at a time in the microwave. So much easier.

The recent way I did them, is put them in a large Tupper with ice. shake, shake, shake and the semi-busted shells will slide right off. I was amazed how fast it worked!
