immediately
to
prevent
• Refrigerate eggs until ready to use . Always use cold
eggs – do not bring them to room temperature
before using or the eggs will be slightly overcooked .
• Eggs should be stored in the carton in which they
were purchased to keep them from drying out and
absorbing refrigerator odors .
• The eggs should be in the carton large end up –
this will help them stay fresher longer and will keep
the yolks centered . This is a suggested method for
storing eggs .
• Don't know if your eggs are fresh? Place them in
a bowl of salted cool water . If they sink, they are
fresh – if they float, they are not .
• Always wash the eggshells prior to soft, medium
or hard cooking .
• You should always cool hard cooked eggs
immediately after cooking to prevent them from
cooking further and causing a dark green ring to
form around the yolk . First use tongs to remove
cooked eggs and carefully place in a large colander
or strainer . Allow cold water to pour over the
eggs until the eggs are cool enough to handle .
Alternatively, you can place the eggs in a large
bowl of ice water .
• To peel hard cooked eggs easily, roll gently on
the counter using the palm of your hand to crack .
Begin peeling from the larger end .
• Hard cooked eggs in the shell will keep for up to
one week properly refrigerated . Hard cooked eggs
out of the shell should be used immediately .
• Hard cooked eggs that have been colored and
displayed decoratively should not be consumed –
enjoy their colorful display and discard .
• To serve soft or medium-cooked eggs out of the
shell, break the shell through the center of the egg
with a knife . Use a teaspoon to scoop the egg out
of each half onto a serving dish or piece of toast .
