Boiled eggs should be left alone to cool for about 15 full minutes before they are peeled. A thorough cool-down can make a world of difference for easily-peeled eggs.
To make a highly effective, highly efficient ice bath, simply fill a mixing bowl halfway with cold tap water and load it up with ice cubes.
Shocking freshly-boiled eggs in an ice bath causes the egg whites to contract, physically separating the egg whites from the inner shell, making them much easier to peel.
