When you collect your eggs is it good to wash them before storage?
No, In fact washing eggs is a bad thing, it only forces bacteria into them, and makes them unhealthy to eat. Washing eggs also weakens the shell, therefore it shortens the time the egg will stay good while in the refrigerator. The only time an egg should be washed is if it has blood or feces on it. Water slightly warmer than the temperature of the egg is the best way to clean the eggs. Most agricultural stores such as Tractor Supply or Southern States sale egg cleanser. It’s not good to even use cleaners because it also goes into the egg through its pores; therefore you are eating chemicals plus the bacteria.
This Blog is about sustainable homebased agriculture, local southern WV families and culture, and life. I will try to talk about things that are current and pressing and maybe some jokes or some serious conversation. I want this blog to be a biographical periodical and a teaching tool. I'd like to have tons of followers and would also like to be able to help my community. Add this site to your favorites and You can see Trail-Blazer my donkey as a favicon.
