Man, I thought I was the only one to cuss when peeling eggs...! I know age has an effect so I boil the oldest eggs first and I boil for 10 minutes and immediately run under cold water, shaking the pan so as to crack the shells all up. Then I peel under cool, running water. Tried the bring to a boil and set aside for 20 minutes trick but it made little difference.
I really believe it is all about the age of the eggs, they should shrink slightly from the shell the longer they sit.
