Housewives do not miss the opportunity to stock up before the holidays or if they see a good price for a popular product.

This habit also applies to eggs. Homemade and factory-made products are stored differently. However, there is a little trick that will help extend the shelf life.

The Trick with Butter

At a temperature of up to +10 °C, eggs are stored for about 3-4 weeks. Homemade eggs can be stored for up to three months. But only if they are immediately placed in the refrigerator.

However, the shelf life can be increased by using a simple trick. Before putting eggs in the refrigerator, housewives rub them with sunflower oil.

A protective film is formed on them, thanks to which the product stays fresh longer.

Food chicken eggs are stored separately from other products that emit a specific smell. The dietary product is stored at a temperature from 0 °C to +20 °C.

Table eggs are kept at a temperature no higher than +20 °C. In the refrigerator, the product is stored at 0 … +2 °C and a relative humidity of 85-88%.
