Eggs

To prevent egg shells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the water before hard boiling.

This works.  Also, peel the egg while it is still hot.  If you let them cool before peeling, the inside skin sticks to the egg and it doesn't come off very well.
To determine whether an egg is fresh, immerse it in a pan of cool, salted water.   If it sinks, it is fresh, but if it rises to the surface, throw it away.
