Easily fixed. Soak them in the pan you’re going to boil them in, but dissolve 1 TBSP of salt in the water and add 1 tsp of white vinegar first. Let them soak for 5 ro so miutes, then hardboil them in that same pan.
They should peel easily and cleanly. I’ll be astonished if they don’t.

Eeeeeeeeeeuuuuuuuwwwww!!!
Narly dude!
For the most eggs per dollar, You've got to divide the weight by the price in order to get the most ounces per dollar.
Keep in mind, though, the shells are discarded so they add weight but don't add usable egg. The larger eggs have thinner shells, so the amount of useable egg is a higher percentage in the larger eggs. This generally makes the larger sizes better.
Do larger eggs have significantly thicker shells?
Others seem to think that the bigger eggs have thinner shells. My personal experience with chickens dates back to my youth on the farm, 60+ years ago. The laying hens had access to oyster shell feeders where they would replenish their bodies’ supply of calcium. Occasionally we would find a flexible egg which had no hard shell. When the hens no longer produced, they were either sold or became chicken soup. Once in a while a producer slipped into the wrong category and became a souper. Then a significant item of interest was the string of eggs in various stages of development along the egg channel.
Chickens were not my favorite animal. They would destroy my model road and other construction projects, scratching for bugs & worms while I was away at school.
Actually have a gizmo like this

Works great! Best soft is about a third of the way past softs. Serve with browned butter. The best.
Owned one of these things for about 2 decades. Love it.
THX! I love pickle juice! Stockpile it even, LOL!
Got a couple jars now. (Use them on White Castles which I eat a lot of) Give this a try tomorrow.
Any other pickle juice ideas?
