After boiling eggs, most people simply pour the water down the sink, which is a serious mistake.
French women have long ago discovered the beneficial properties of such water. Of course, to use water after boiling eggs, you cannot add salt to it beforehand.
What are the benefits of water?
It is important to understand that eggshells contain many useful vitamins and minerals.
During cooking they dissolve in water. Therefore, it can be safely used later after cooling.
Can be added to soups or sauces
Egg water is often used in French cuisine to add rich flavor and aroma to soups and sauces. It gives dishes a special richness and texture.
However, in order to use such water, it is important to thoroughly wash the eggs first. The thing is that various contaminants may remain on the shell, which will not bring any benefit.
Jam and jelly
Some French housewives use egg water when making fruit jam or jelly.
This gives sweet desserts extra flavor and density. Of course, you still need to pay attention to the consistency.
Watering for plants
Egg water is not only used in cooking. Some French gardeners use it as a natural fertilizer for indoor and garden plants due to its high nutrient content.
