I have struggled with this, in particular peeling boiled eggs where it doesn't peel off cleanly.

Bring eggs to room temp.
Bring water to low boil.
Put eggs in water for 10 minutes.
Drain eggs and run under cold water, then chill in the fridge.

TIP:

Add 1/4 cup of VINEGAR, either kind, to the water before boiling...............

I have always left eggs in cold water after they are done cooking. I crack each egg in a few places against the side of the pan then leave them to soak in cold water at least 10 minutes. The water will seep in under the shell and they peal easily. If you hit a dry patch just dunk it.

I have found boiling eggs to peel cleanly is easy with these directions:

-fill pot with water
-add eggs
-add more water if necessary to cover eggs by at least 1/2" or so (too much water is only that which would spill over when boiling)
-put the lid on the pot
-add high heat
-bring to a boil
-after it reaches boiling, lower heat to 1/2 for 10 minutes
-drain pot and run eggs under cold water

You can eat them then or put them in the refrigerator with the shells on.

Over the next few days, you can take some out of the refrigerator, drop them in hot water (hot tap water is fine) with the shells on, or peel them right from the refrigerator and eat them cold.
