Many people buy eggs in bulk and put them in the refrigerator – it’s no wonder that the housewife forgets when they were bought.
The second problem is that no one guarantees that the food product purchased will be of good quality.
During the preparation process, it is extremely important to correctly determine the freshness of the product.
We suggest paying attention to three methods that will help you understand that an egg is not fresh.
How to determine the freshness of an egg
Here are 3 ways.
- Water. Carefully place the egg in a bowl of water - if it sinks and lies on its side, then it is fresh. If it floats, then it is better not to eat it.
- Smell. A fresh egg has a neutral and slightly earthy smell. An unpleasant smell will be felt even from under the shell, as it has a porous structure.
- Consistency: Break it into a separate bowl and check its appearance.
Previously we posted a method that will allow you to fry an egg without oil.
