Eggs are an affordable and healthy product that is included in the diet of many.

Egg dishes are usually prepared for breakfast or as a healthy snack. Some also actively add the product to baking dough. But not every housewife knows how to properly break the shell.

Some people are used to breaking eggs with a knife. But you shouldn't do that.

This device is not suitable. The blade splits the shell and crumbles it. The remains of the shell can get into the product itself, and then they can spoil the dish itself.

How to properly crack a raw egg

The product must be washed beforehand to ensure that no bacteria enter during the cooking process.

Only then can you start breaking the shell. This should be done on a hard and flat surface. For example, a table, the bottom of a plate or a cutting board will do.

The process must be approached carefully so as not to completely break the shell, and the egg itself does not end up on the table.
