From cooking to peeling.

Hard-boiling eggs might sound easy, but it can be pretty tricky...

So here are 12 tricks that'll help you make the best hard-boiled eggs of your life:

1. Use the 5-5-5 method to cook them in an Instant Pot...

2. Or "hard-boil" them in the oven.

3. Store your eggs tip-point down to center the yolk.

4. Let your eggs sit out at room temperature before boiling them to avoid cracked shells.

5. You can also try poking a hole in them to prevent cracking as well.

6. If you don't have a stovetop, go with this no-flame method that doesn't even involve boiling water.

7. Steam them to make the shells peel off easily.

8. Always use older eggs if possible...

9. And add a bit of vinegar to the water.

10. Peel a hard-boiled egg in a matter of seconds by shaking it in a glass of water...

11. Or just use the hit and roll method...

12. And always peel them right after you make them — don't let them sit in their shells.
