After the egg is boiled, place the egg in a container with ice. The shell of the egg can easily peel off when the egg is cold. After it is cold, slightly crack the shell then begin to peel it off. But, remember that some eggs are hard to peel even when they are cold. Good luck! Add a pinch of salt to the water before you boil the eggs, it will make it easier to peel later. When the eggs are done pour off the hot water and add ice cubes place a lid on the pot and shake it back and forth, the ice will crack the egg shells. Let the eggs remain in the ice for about 10 or 15 minutes. Peeling will be much easier. As soon as you get your eggs boiled (don't boil in an enamel pot or you can't get a even peel), run cold water over the eggs until the water becomes cool. Tap the top and bottom of the egg on a hard surface to break the thin skin between the shell and egg. Hold egg under cold running water, roll between palms (back and forth), peel shell off and have a perfect egg! Use your thumbnail to get under the membrane under the shell. Keep working at it and it should all eventually slough off.
What if the egg has already been refrigerated? Simple! Place it back in really hot water for a while, then run it under very cold water, and it should peel a lot better than if it was peeled right from the fridge.
