Why are my hard-boiled eggs hard to peel?
I swear by immediately submerging them in ice cold water in a large bowl to be easier to peel. There are some people that say fresh eggs are harder to peel than older eggs. It really all just comes down to the membrane. It connects the internal portion of the egg to the shell. I will say white are much easier to peel than brown!
Do hard-boiled eggs in the shell need to be refrigerated?
Yes, it doesnโt matter if eggs are in their shell or not because once you hard boil them, they have to be stored in the fridge from then on.

Some people say that the taste varies too if theyโre overcooked but that just varies on each personโs tastebuds.
