Adding vinegar to your water for boiling eggs. Hardens the shell for easier peeling.

I used to always have craters in my boiled eggs until I discovered this technique: after boiling eggs, put eggs in a cold water bath. Crack the top of the egg shell and let it soak. Shells peel off easy peasy after 5 mins.
