Tip:
Check the shell: In addition to the water test, check that the shell is clean and free of cracks. Eggs with damaged shells are at higher risk of infection.
Odor as a last resort: If an egg floats but you’re not sure, crack the shell into a separate container. If it has an unpleasant odor, discard it immediately.
Store properly: Keep eggs in the refrigerator to prolong their freshness. Place them on the main shelf, not on the door, as temperatures are more stable.
Use aged eggs for certain recipes: While older eggs aren’t ideal for stir-fries or omelets, they work well in recipes where they’re mixed with other ingredients, such as cookies or cakes.
