I do a thing (which is maybe not that good) I cook a little longer my eggs (just before the yolk turns green) and then it's sooooo much easier to take off the shells. -------------- - Nina :o) La vie est toujours aussi belle.....

After 10 min, I remove them from the heat and, keeping them in the water, let them cool so they are just warm to the touch. All of the eggs peel very nicely. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."

If the eggs are several days old (let them sit in the fridge a few days before cooking..) the shells will come off easily, no problem!!!!!!! -------------- Persistence and failure never stay in the same room......Leslie
