Let them sit in the refrigerator for about a week before you boil 'em.
If eggs are hard to peel, it means you boiled them too fresh.

Best regards,

If you mean pullet eggs- from very young heans- those have extremely
THICK shells and no matter their age, the shells do not peel off of
them nicely if they are hard boiled. I only use (a lot) of pullets
for making scrambled/breakfast things. Never for use as hard boiled/
My Egg rancher will sell pullets 30 for $1 because he can't get rid of
them. He sells a lot around Easter, but I have tried and tired and
even when cracking them raw, the shells are way too thick compared to
'regular' eggs.

If you want tiny eggs, buy some water packed canned quail eggs.

They are already peeled. Wink

I do raise cochin bantam chickens tho', and they eggs are about 1/2 the
size of "normal" sized eggs, especially now that my downsizing breeding
program is going so well. Smile

They get tinier with each generation, and
so do the eggs!

I just room temp. age them as usual prior to hard boiling, and they peel
just fine.

when you are done boiling the eggs put them in ICE Water the second they
come out of the pot and leave them there for 15 minutes then peal them like
regular HB Eggs. (the cold water makes them pull back from the shell.

I have never found this to be the case. Quite the contrary, actually.
Cold makes things contract not expand. I find that I have much better
luck when the eggs are peeled just hot enough to handle without
getting burned. They slip off every single time. I always have a
problem with cold eggs, that membrane just tightens up like panty hose
on a fat lady.

Really ? Think of it every Chef I know and I know a few, and then the ones
on TV say the same thing when the egg whit contracts from the cold it pulls
away from the shell allowing you to peel it cleaner, take the egg, just one
and when they are ready put it in the ice water for 10 min and see, anyway
you proved me correct by saying it does contract when cold, the shell stays
the same,

Pardon me,,,,HI, was lurking on your newsgroup and realized you are
on computers, I am on Webtv

I don't know what "Pee-wee eggs" are.

I had to throw an egg away yesterday,

I have not tried this yet, but I heard that after hard cooking your
eggs, keep the water boiling in the pan, then hit the eggs with
cold water, and then put them back in hot water,

drain and crack them around in the pan then peel

I like your group but know that I am on Webtv not "puter , I am
probably not welcome here,

If anyone here could direct me to a newsgroup with very simple recipes,
I would be so grateful

You are a fun group, hard to find on

Hi Hillia CAT,

Everyone is welcome here as long as they behave!

We do share a lot of recipes and techniques here and generally have great
discussions, too.

If you prefer recipes without dialogue - go to Rec.Food.Recipes. They are a
moderated group - which means if you have a recipe question or a recipe
you'd like to share, you must go through "the moderator" or your
question/recipe will NOT show up.

Our group is one of the friendliest (that I know of) there are other cooking
and recipe groups out there. If you aren't easily offended and put off by
idiots and loud (mouth) typists... rec.food.cooking can be an interesting,
fun, educational, entertaining, and/or infuriating place to visit. Be sure
to wear your Kevlar suit and gloves as some of the players can be a bit
rough.

Welcome to our little world. I hope you have a great time with us... feel
free to ask questions and share your favorite recipes with us.

Cyndi

What in the world makes you feel unwelcome here? Snobs and sneerers
aren't welcome, but there's nothing we can do about them.

I assume that "pee-wee eggs" are what I call "pullet eggs", very small
eggs from hens that have just started to lay.
