Pépin’s ingenious method involves a subtle modification—poking a small hole in the wider end of the egg before boiling. This uncomplicated adjustment allows the air pocket inside the egg to escape gradually during the cooking process, making the eggshell effortlessly removable. Unlike when the air pocket is trapped, causing the white to adhere to the shell, this method ensures a smooth and easy peeling experience.
Simple Tools, Big Impact: How to Execute Pépin’s Technique:
You don’t need any fancy tools or culinary expertise to implement this game-changing hack. A basic pin or thumbtack is all you require. Gently puncture the eggshell at the wider end, ensuring the hole is large enough to release air but small enough to maintain the egg’s structural integrity. Once the hole is made, proceed to boil the egg as usual. The released air pocket makes the peeling process a breeze post-cooking.
