I flick the shell with my middle finger and then crack it open. No mess, no shell fragments.

This is the only way I've ever known -- picked it up from my parents a couple dozen years ago when I was very small and wanted breakfast when they didn't.

I didn't think it was anything special until I roomed with someone in '04-'06 who'd never seen it before. At his wedding last year, he mentioned to me that he was still trying to figure out the technique. eh.

as party tricks go, it wears out fast. but flat surface is the way to go ... cracking it on the edge of something more often leads to a broken yolk.

Wow, excellent use of an emoticon if I've ever seen one.


OP - I used to use a sharp edge like a bowl but have found that a flat surface like a countertop works much better.
