boiled eggs cracking in the pan

[Nige F]

how do you stop boiled eggs from cracking in the pan?
I presume it's a side effect of buying cheap eggs as the shells are really thin.. the barn eggs seem to take more of a whack to crack them open..

put them in carefully. they crack when you drop them in

I bet that's laid the ground for a few more wisecracks

Not the town silly, use a fondue of the cheese.
