What do you add to the water when boiling eggs to make them peel easier?
Online Answer
Add a little baking soda (about 1/2 teaspoon or a little less) to the water while boiling. This will make it easier to peel the eggs later on. Once the eggs are done cooking, give them a little crack and plunge them in an ice water bath. Only do this if you're going to peel them right away.
