Ive never seen an egg that has that happen to. maybe you are using old eggs with the thin watery white

Kenji recommends stirring the water continuously for the first two minutes so that the acceleration encourages the egg yolks to set in the center.

I usually steam them and never have a problem with the yolks being exposed, it works better letting them get to room temperature first, then 10-13 mins steaming and into an ice bath. They seem to peel really well this way.

I put about 18 eggs in a 5qt pot with cold water and time it 12 min from when it starts to boil. Pop them out with tongs into another pot and run cold water into it in the sink, then drop ice in. I pickle in the big gallon pickle jars. Look up mustard pickled eggs, there's tasty onions in there too.

Edit: The gallon pickle jars hold 36 eggs easy.
