We all love to have boiled eggs for breakfast. While the process of
boiling eggs is easy, it is peeling of the shells later that seems like
quite a task. This viral hack of boiling eggs without having to peel the
shells is winning the internet. A woman named Peggy shared a clever
trick on Facebook page - Instant Pot Community - and posted a video of
boiling a large batch of eggs at once in all of five minutes without
breaking a sweat (and shells!).
In the post, Peggy showed
how she cracked eight eggs in a heatproof bowl greased with oil. She
placed the bowl in a bigger pot filled with water, covered it and put in
on stove on medium heat to cook. Within 5 minutes, the eggs were boiled
and she got her hard-boiled eggs with shells removed.
Peggy wrote on the post - 'I'm making potato salad and needed eight boiled eggs, chopped. Did you know you can just crack them in a bowl and put the whole bowl in the pot? No ice bath or peeling required. 'The resulting bowl-shaped egg loaf is initially horrifying, but once you chop it up, it's wonderful!'
With this genius method, you get a large egg loaf in the shape of the
bowl, which you can easily chop and use in salads or sandwiches. This
video went viral soon after posting, with amused users hailing the hack
as 'genius' and 'game-changer'.
One person wrote - 'This
is genius. I hate peeling eggs!', another user posted - "I tried this
with a bowl in a saucepan and it worked a treat - easiest way to cook
eggs by far."
