HELPFUL HINTS

• Avoid purchasing cracked or broken eggs. Always check freshness
date on egg packaging.
• To test eggs for freshness, place an egg in a bowl of cool water. If it
sinks, it is fresh; if it floats, discard the egg.
• Chill hard boiled eggs in cold water IMMEDIATELY after cooking to
prevent the blue discoloration around the egg yolk.
• Store eggs in the refrigerator. Boiled eggs will keep for up to one
week in the refrigerator. Poached eggs can be plunged into cold
water immediately after cooking and be covered and refrigerated for
up to two days.
• To reheat refrigerated poached eggs, allow egg to reach room
temperature or set poached egg in hot water for about one minute.
• When a recipe calls for eggs to be at "room temperature," remove
eggs from refrigerator 30 minutes prior to use.
