Eggs in the refrigerator are stored for a long time, but how can you make this period of time be extended for a longer period?

This product contains quite a lot of vitamins and microelements, and the cost of the product continues to rise.

Note that the optimal storage temperature is 1-2 degrees Celsius.

Let's take a look at some tips that will help your eggs last longer.

How to store eggs properly

Here are some tips.

  1. Place them end down so that the yolk does not come into contact with the air layer.
  2. Grease with butter. Olive oil and glycerin will also work. This will create a barrier that will prevent bacteria from coming into contact with the shell.
  3. Keep fish and raw meat away. The shell surface is porous, allowing bacteria from raw foods to pass through.
  4. Do not wash eggs before storing. This removes the protective flora that prolongs shelf life.
