In this video, I show how i make super easy to peel steamed boiled eggs. No waste, no need for ice bath. No mess & no fuss. Totally foolproof & consistent all the time! Bring some water to a rolling boil, it should take about 8/10 minutes. I am using 4 organic fresh eggs. Fill a bowl with cold tap water. There is no need for ice cubes. Place it by the steamer along with a slotted spoon to collect the eggs. When the water is on full boil, place the eggs in a steamer basket & cover with lid. Keep the water boiling at full steam for 8 mins, it is best to set an alarm. When time is up, turn pot off & plunge eggs quickly in the cold tap water. Make sure they are all submerged. And this is the best part, the eggs peel so easily with no mess and no fuss. Gently tap the egg on surface 4 times: top, bottom & sides, like so... The peel just comes off effortlessly… And repeat this sequence with all the eggs. Totally fool proof and consistent all the times. No mess, no fuss, no waste, no ice bath. The shell can be composted too. I prefer the yolks slightly softer, but for firmer texture, steam them for 10 to 11 minutes at full steam (instead of 8 minutes only). Add a sprinkle of pink salt, and they are ready. Don't forget to compost the box & the eggshells and give the water used to cool them in to the plants. Super easy, quick, delicious steamed eggs. No fuss, no mess & no waste!
