When storing boiled eggs, it is important to follow a few simple rules.
Proper storage, as reported by ADVICE.NEWS , will allow you to keep the product fresh for a long time and protect your health and the health of your loved ones.
First, let them cool after cooking. To speed up cooling, place hard-boiled eggs in their shells in cool water for a couple of minutes.
Once the eggs have cooled, place them in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
Sealed packaging prevents absorption of foreign odors.
Be sure to place the eggs in an airtight bag or container, as shell-less eggs are more exposed to air.
Be sure to place a damp paper towel inside the storage container. This will prevent the whites of the peeled eggs from drying out too quickly.
In the refrigerator, the container with peeled boiled eggs should be on the bottom shelf, since this is where the temperature is most stable.
Do not store boiled eggs at room temperature as they will spoil within 1-2 hours.
Do not put boiled eggs in the freezer. After defrosting, the eggs will become watery and lose their flavor.
Store product in the refrigerator for up to one week.
If mucus appears on the eggs, the color, smell and consistency change, then the product has spoiled and should be thrown away.
