Why is it so hard to peel fresh hard boiled eggs?

Have you ever had a hard-boiled egg you can’t peel? Or when you get done it looks like the egg has been in a fight with a mountain lion? If you have, chances are you’re buying eggs direct from the farmer. It’s not a bad thing, it’s great to have fresh food!

​Don’t worry, the solution is an easy one, just use a little patience and problem solved! Get 2 dozen eggs, one for fresh eating and the other should be ready to hard boil by the time you finish your first dozen. When you are at the store, check our best buy date, with our fresh eggs, the closer to expiration the better the hard-boiled egg. We’ve found that eggs around two weeks old make the best fresh hard-boiled eggs without the egg white sticking to the shell.
