Why should you add lemon when boiling eggs?

Many people don’t fully understand why some chefs add lemon to the water when boiling eggs. Here are some notable benefits:

1. Makes the eggshell easier to peel

One of the most common reasons people add lemon to the boiling water is to make the eggshell easier to peel after cooking. This is especially helpful for eggs that have been stored in the fridge or for eggs that are boiled for a long time. Lemon contains citric acid, which helps soften the outer shell, reducing the adhesion between the shell and the egg white, making it easier to peel without damaging the shape, especially when you need to present the dish.
