Blowing an egg out of its shell is one of the oldest tricks in the book.

However, it's not quite as easy as a quick exhale into a fractured hard-boiled egg.

Opera singer or asthmatic, the trick of baking soda will make the blow much easier.

it's added in when you're going to boil the eggs with water (the level of water is about 2 inches above the eggs).

I would recommend that you lower your entire soda sack into the boiling water be sure your doin's are exactly two inches below the water's surface.
