Eggs are one of the most basic and universal ingredients in cooking.
It is good to always have a considerable amount at home.
However, it can be a problem to keep them fresh for as long as possible.
Femina has recommended a great trick that allows you to preserve eggs for two years.
It is no coincidence that people frown when they see a trick circulating on the Internet that supposedly keeps eggs fresh for up to two years.
We admit that it sounds hardly credible.
But this method really works!
The egg preservation method
The key element of the process is lime.
The eggs should be placed in a masonry container and then covered with calcium hydroxide, i.e. lime water.
The proportions of the solution are simple: for every liter of water, you need as many tablespoons of slaked lime.
Finally, you just have to close the container.
It is worth working with gloves, as contact with the liquid can irritate the skin.
The question arises whether this method, which seems strange at first glance, really works, but the fact is that our great-grandmothers also preserved eggs with lime.
They soaked them in lime water and then stored them in a box filled with wheat.
In any case, it is important to know that the surface of eggs cleaned at the supermarket is not as resistant to bacteria as those that have just been laid by the hen.
Do you know how to properly store eggs in the refrigerator? Avoid this MISTAKE!
Some of us place them on the refrigerator door tray.
In this place, the temperature is variable, which can cause products to lose freshness more quickly.
