To prepare impeccable hard-boiled eggs, the shell of which will easily separate from the protein and will not crumble, you need to take the following steps.

1. Ideal hard-boiled eggs are between 7 and 10 days old. Therefore, you should not choose the freshest eggs for salads.
   
   
   
2. Make a small puncture in the rounded part of the egg (no deeper than 5 mm) with a needle, pin or button. Don’t worry, nothing will leak out of the egg: there is empty space in the round part of the egg that will protect the contents.
   
   
   
3. Put the egg in boiling water. Otherwise, the protein will heat up more slowly and have time to stick to the shell under the shell.
4. Add water, it also facilitates the separation of the shell. Some advise adding half a teaspoon of soda to a liter of water.

6. Directly from the boiled water, put your eggs in a bowl of ice and water.
7. Start peeling the egg from the stupid side. There's an air camera underneath. This will remove the shell without damaging the protein.
8. Does none of the above help? Make some poached eggs. They are no less tasty, but will do without an irritating procedure for cleaning the shell.
