A mind-blowing eggstraction

Peeling a hard-boiled egg without damaging the inside can feel like diffusing a bomb in a James Bond movie. However, one enterprising TikTok user has managed to solve this culinary conundrum by blowing the egg out using his mouth.

In the viral how-to video, entitled “for all my egg lovers out there,” influencer Zach Crean demonstrates cracking the egg at either end for a grade-A hack. He then blows on the pointy side as if it were a kazoo so the egg flies out the larger escape “hatch” in one piece. Voilà, a hard-boiled egg made easy.

She then skillfully flips the whole shebang over via spatula so the buns brown, before slicing the sandwich to eat.
