I found this on another board today:
For all of you who LOVE boiled eggs but have "issues" with peeling them, this is....AMAZING.
DH and I decided to have salads last night for supper. Now my trick with the spoon peeling the shell off USUALLY works okay. But, his co-workers told him this trick. He decided that if it didnt work he was NOT going to tell them, as they were just trying to get him to do something stupid
But, it does work! Here goes:
Take the boiled egg.
Crack the small end of the egg. Open up a small hole, about dime size if you can, through shell and membrane.
Put the egg to your mouth and BLOW!
The membrane will inflate, causing it to pop the shell. Then just peel the membrane and shell off.
I did the large end instead and it still worked, though would have been better with the small end I expect. Hubby did 3 eggs, in about 30 seconds, and these were eggs right out of the coop!!! Go, on, try it!!!!

I'll have to give that one a try next time I have hard-boiled eggs. If I remember!
