Nowadays all I get is AI slop articles about “other ways to cook eggs”.

EDIT: Managed to solve this issue, and I like the way the comment section has gone nuts.

    From working in commercial kitchens where Id do 50-100+ for breakfast every day:

    first boil them, then straight into an ice bath. The temperature shock will contract the whites away from the membrane a little. (This also helps prevent carryover cooking)

    Then, fish the eggs out, roll them along a hard surface to crack a band around the middle, then into a second cool, but not freezing bucket of water with a cloth, and use the cloth underwater to gently peel the shells away.
