What to do if an egg breaks: instead of throwing it away, use advice from wise cooks

Tell me, who hasn’t encountered a situation when, upon returning from the store, it was discovered that one or more eggs out of the dozen purchased had broken right in the bag or mold?

Instead of shedding tears over a seemingly spoiled product, try to make the most of the situation.

If not all the eggs were broken (and we hope that this is what happened), then first select the whole eggs.

Rinse the remaining eggs under running water, dry them with a napkin and put them in the refrigerator.

Now remove the shell fragments from the egg mixture. Then pour the mixture into a clean, tightly sealed container, such as a disposable cup.

Wrap the glass in film and put it in the refrigerator. Now you can decide how to use this egg mass in the future.

You can make scrambled eggs, omelettes or egg noodle soup from broken eggs. You can use them as an ingredient for homemade vermicelli or casserole with meat or vegetables. By the way, eggs are also part of cottage cheese casserole, as well as manna, and it is simply impossible to imagine pancake dough without them. And other dough too - the one intended for making muffins, cakes, donuts, pies and other baked goods.

Earlier we talked about how to stew cabbage so that there is no unpleasant smell.
