So sitting here eating my lunch, which consists of 6 premade hard boiled eggs that I bought at the store for 1.50.
I can't image they have a room full of grandma's peeling thousands of hard boiled eggs 24x7....so...how do they do it? EDIT: They all have a perfect little bit of membrane on the thin end, but ive never seen one with the whites gouged or anything....I'm talking perfectly peels hard boiled eggs. |

Forced air. So they subject it to a light breeze? Be any more cryptic there on the process, sparky? |

The easiest place for the air to go is between the shell and boiled egg white. The shell gives from the pressure and falls away. Similar to how some people cut an incision into an animal's hide and force air in to separate the skin from the meat. |

One of my sisters is a food scientist and I remember reading in one of her magazines about a commercial product that was essentially a huge tube egg. I guess they'd crack/separate the whites/yolks, then pour them into a long tube that was spinning –– I'd guess (I'm making this up) –– to keep the yolk in the center, and they'd cook the tube. End result: each slice perfect.
ETA: yeah, like wintermute posted. |

Im talking about the whole hard boiled eggs that are usually next to the prepared single meal salads in the deli section. Like these: Eggs! |

I liked where that was going until I realized it actually was an egg extractor. |

After eggs have been boiled 3-5 minutes (some place, more, depending on state health regs and altitude, salt in water or not)
Drain hot water, let eggs cool off a bit (or use a hot mitt) move eggs around in pot until shells are all cracked. Put COLD water in the pot with eggs, (add ice is optional - works faster) let sit for a few minutes, sheel will peel right off in your hand or under water rinse. Store eggs in water with salt and a few drops of lemon juice. |

I about 2 hours the sulfur smelling methane gas gets expelled
6 eggs for $1.50 is a deal |

You have to use shitty eggs too.
Storebought eggs usually work well. Our "home grown" organic fed eggs don't peel for shit. They stick together too much. None of the tricks in the book worked, which is a shame. |

It is always within your best interest to boil older eggs. The membrane between the egg and the shell needs time to separate. |

Also tried boiling, then letting them sit in the fridge for a few weeks. These are from organic fed free range, mostly Buckeyes and Silver Laced Wyandottes. |
