boil

Hard boil an egg the right way, use salt.

To boil an egg without the egg sticking to the shell when you peel it, all you need is one extra ingredient in the water and plenty of it: salt. Sometimes when I made hard boiled eggs in the past, the shell would stick to the white part of the egg when I peeled them. But after I began adding 2-3 tablespoons of salt, this is a problem of the past, and the egg shells just slide right off.
