The Farm-Fresh Difference
How to Check Your Eggs
-
The Float Test: Place an egg in a bowl of water. Fresh eggs sink and lay flat. If it stands up on one end, it’s a bit older (perfect for boiling!). If it floats, it’s past its prime.
-
The Crack Test: A fresh egg has a perky, domed yolk and thick, cloudy whites. If the white is watery and spreads out thin, the egg is older but still safe for baking.
-
The Sniff Test: Trust your nose! A fresh egg should have no smell.
Understanding Your Harvest
-
Yolk Color: Don't be surprised by color shifts! Deep orange yolks come from summer grass and bugs; lighter yolks happen in winter. Both are delicious.
-
Blood Spots: Finding a tiny red spot? It’s a natural occurrence and perfectly safe to eat—just a sign of a high-functioning hen.
Pro Storage Tips
-
Pointy Side Down: This keeps the yolk centered and the air pocket at the top, extending freshness.
-
Fridge Placement: Store eggs on a middle shelf, not the door. Constant temperature is the secret to long-lasting eggs.
-
Unwashed vs. Washed: If we’ve left the "bloom" (natural coating) on, they can sit on the counter. Once they are washed, they must stay refrigerated.
