Freezing Eggs


Freezing Eggs

Ok... So your fridge is FULL of more eggs than you can eat, or you buy them fresh at the farmers market. You can always freeze these eggs for later

First I would check them to make sure they are still good. Get a large bowl or pot, fill it with cold or look-warm water and carefully place one egg at a time in the water. If the egg sinks it's GOOD, if it FLOATS it's BAD. ... It's just that simple. 

Then add them to an ice cube tray and freeze them. You could also add just the egg whites or an egg white with yolk or you can whisk them for future scrambled eggs. Once they are frozen place them in a DATED freezer bag in your freezer. 

Then this winter when your chickens stop laying you will still have enough eggs for cooking and eating. Make sure you take out a few the day before to defrost
