For Gordon Ramsay, one of his best-known kitchen hacks is his unique method for scrambling eggs, but the famous chef also has a useful if somewhat unintuitive tip for perfectly peeling boiled eggs: Crack the shell before soaking them.
For an easy peel, gently crack boiled eggs and soak in cold water While making Scotch eggs in a YouTube video, Ramsay revealed a quick and easy hack to peel boiled eggs. After boiling appropriately, drain the hot water and run them under cold water in a pan. Cooling the eggs quickly is important to keep the yolks from turning an unappetizing gray.
Ramsay advises tapping the eggs on the side of the pan to crack the shell and then placing them back in the cold water. The cracks in the shell allow water to seep underneath, helping loosen the shell from both sides rather than just the outs.
