Eggs are a healthy and nutritious product that is actively used in cooking. Eggs can be used to prepare breakfasts, for example, simple scrambled eggs or omelettes.

Boiled eggs are also useful. They are an excellent stand-alone product or complement salads.

But this is not the entire scope of application. The product is still necessary for making batter, pancake dough or pies.

But it is not always possible to use eggs on time. As a result, if they lie for too long, they can spoil even in the refrigerator.

Experienced housewives use household life hacks to save their family budget.

For example, they rub eggs with sunflower oil before putting them in the refrigerator.

Apply a thin layer of oil over the entire surface to create a protective film.

As a result, store-bought and homemade eggs will last longer in the refrigerator.

This method is especially relevant if you need to buy food for the holiday table in advance.
