Why can one not buy boiled eggs?

Burning toast is no challenge, did it just yesterday morning. :whistle:
I boil up an 18 count of eggs at a time as I eat 2 a day for breakfast. I've had varied results, but the best technique I've found is put them in water, bring to boil, set timer for 3 minutes. Remove from water with tongs, let them cool, then put in fridge.

The true test of a boiled egg is how well it peels. Here's a video on that:

So that is how it's done. I am always burning my finger peeling very hot eggs. :cry: 😄

I boiled three eggs this morning and peeled them as per video tutorial.
Guess what? No burnt fingers :D

That's interesting!

How long do you keep hard-cooked eggs in the refrigerator?

I've been told that they should last in the shell as long as the expiration date on the carton, but I've always been reluctant to store them for more than two or three days.

Longer-term storage would be helpful.

I left an egg in the refrigerator for a couple of months.
When I walked into the kitchen, I heard chirping.

Un-cooked eggs are good in the fridge for several weeks, not exactly sure what the 'recommended' time frame is. I would think that cooked eggs would have an even better shelf life, although that's not a concern for me, as they are usually consumed in about a week here.

I have an egg steamer. Works every time.

I was starting to wonder if I grew up in the only family with the appliance that makes hard boiled eggs! I think the old fashion one worked a lot better than the newer ones.
But now I just buy the ready hard-boiled eggs at Kroger.
 
My grocery store (not Wally World) has them in the dairy case along with the cartons of eggs. They are usually six to a package.
