She told me there's nothing in the world that can make a fresh egg easier to peel so I so "oh yeah, check this out" (and I practiced beforehand on some eggs in the fridge that were at least a few days from when they were laid- it worked like a charm!- Awesome) I tried on an egg that was laid only two or three days ago and alas. I blew and blew until the egg started splitting with the shell still attached. It ended with an egg with lots of chunks still stuck to the shell. alas; I had to admit she's older and wiser and knows more than I do. At least I had a delicious, tasty, fresh egg to wash down my slice of humble pie. Hi Mark, Tim, Everyone

I wish I read your post about the fresh eggs carefully, Mark…before I made a bet with my mom that I could really teach her something about peeling eggs.

She told me there’s nothing in the world that can make a fresh egg easier to peel so I so “oh yeah, check this out”

alas; I had to admit she’s older and wiser and knows more than I do.

At least I had a delicious, tasty, fresh egg to wash down my slice of humble pie.

It does keep the colour in green veg but even a teeny bit gets rid all the beautiful vitamins! :-) Hey Tim,

The egg peel is definitely looser and easier to remove but I can't get that nice one fell swoop blow. I'll keep trying! I have tried this multiple times and still can’t get it to work!
