• Fast results with the Instant Pot: I think the easiest way to peel eggs is to cook them in the pressure cooker – they literally pop out of their shell. look at mine Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs recipe to find out how to do it.
• No instant pot? If you don’t have a pressure cooker and prefer to cook them in a pot, make sure your eggs aren’t too fresh. Eggs are easier to peel when they are at least 10 days old.
• When to peel: For best results, after cooking, place the eggs in a medium bowl of ice and peel your eggs once they are cool enough to handle. Fully chilled eggs don’t peel well.
• Make-Ahead Hard Boiled Eggs: You can peel your eggs ahead of time and keep them in the fridge for up to seven days.

Variations and Tips

• Mayo: Replace mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.
• Pickles: For extra flavor, add your favorite sweet pickle relish, chopped dill pickles, or pickle juice to the yolk filling.
• Vinegar: Stir in some red wine vinegar for some acidity.
• Bacon: Before eating, sprinkle them with chopped bacon.
• Fresh herbs: Substitute fresh dill, parsley, or finely chopped spring onions for chives.
