Eggs are a popular product. They become the basis for tasty and healthy breakfasts, and also help out when preparing various complex dishes and desserts.

It is common practice to keep them in the refrigerator before cooking.

But is this right?

Experienced cooks claim that there is no need for this.

The fact is that the product can be stored at room temperature for up to two weeks.

If you need the product to last longer, then it really is worth using the refrigerator.

The cold will prolong their freshness up to 3 months. But it should be taken into account that the eggs will lose some of their beneficial properties.

Another benefit of storing eggs outside the refrigerator is that many recipes call for room temperature eggs, meaning you don't have to take the eggs out of the refrigerator first.
