A chef’s clever hack for perfectly peeled eggs is to add a splash of white vinegar to the boiling water when cooking hard-boiled eggs; the vinegar helps to dissolve some of the shell’s calcium carbonate, making it easier for the shell to separate from the egg white when peeling. Key points about this hack: How it works: The acidic nature of vinegar slightly weakens the shell, allowing it to come off more readily. Important step: After boiling, immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process and further facilitate peeling. Other methods: Some chefs also suggest gently tapping the boiled egg on a hard surface to create small cracks in the shell before peeling, or shaking the eggs in a container of cold water to help loosen the shell
