I was taught ( by a retired cook who was in service all her life) that the best meringues are made from old egg whites and if you’ve only got fresh eggs, freeze the whites overnight and it will greatly improve them. Never tried it though.

An interesting thought. The whites were marginally thicker after freezing which would add some credibility to the idea

I absolutely adore the subject. I have been freezing eggs for years. I use a lot of eggs everyday for all members of our farm. Human and canine. They are such a good source of protein. Since we are such a remote farm, we try to avoid town trips. We keep giant freezers. There is so much work, I make everything as simple as possible. I keep gallon freezer ziplocs. And throw whatever I have that I am not using into the bag. Tomato bag, toss it in whole. Eggs tossed in their bag whole too. I take them out and run them under cool water. The shell pops off. The inside is still frozen. Same with tomatos. We are big egg eaters. When I have a mass of eggs, like Easter, I will break some into whites and yolks. I always put 6 in a bag. If I want a more rich scramble, just throw extra yolks in. When I want a runny basted egg, just use fresh. My yolks tend to be an orange and have a more dense yolk naturally. So I try to capitalize on that quality. I am looking forward to seeing your videos. When I have time. Today I am sick or I would have the chainsaw working in the woods. Ya'll enjoy those beautiful Orpingtons. They look descended from Royalty. 😉

Also, I do use a recipe that gently heats the yolks over a bowl of hot water, so that makes me more confident about keeping it around so long. Plus there's plenty of bourbon and spiced rum to help.

Raised chickens for years. I lived in CO and now MT, and because our winters are cold, sometimes hens won't stay on an egg and it will eventually freeze. More often then not I'll either fry it up and add it to the dog food or scramble it , shell and all and feed it back to the chickens. They LOVE scrambled eggs.

Thank you so much! I just froze a dozen eggs by cracking the shells and putting the whole eggs individually whipped, one at a time, in the muffin tins. For one, they didn't come out very easily with the metal muffin tin and I had to use a knife to coax them. I then put them all in a baggie and back in the freezer. Now I know they will make good scrambled eggs. One channel said to use 1/8 teaspoon salt in each if cooking, 1/8 teaspoon sugar in each if baking. That may be the difference in how the yolk turns out. We shall see.

Hello Hugh, great timing again, just picked up some farm fresh eggs today! Last year, before the egg laying dropped off for winter, I bought several dozen eggs and ran them in the blender, then poured into silicone muffin cups like you've done. Once frozen, I slipped them in resealable plastic bags and put them back in the freezer. The problem I had was frost bite. After a couple of months the insides of the bags were getting a bit frosty, but even cooking up eggs for eating, it wasn't much of an issue. However, our winters are about five months long, and by the last month the "egg pucks" thawed out to a very thick consistency because so much of the moisture had crystalized in the bags. At this point I could add the pucks, and additional water or milk to make up for lost moisture, to dishes for cooking or baking - but I wasn't impressed with eating them as just cooked eggs. I had hoped to 'water glass' (we use lime in US so not really water glassing) eggs for the winter, and bought some hydrated lime for that purpose. Then I learned they need to be added to the lime water THE SAME DAY THEY'RE LAID. My farmer is 16 miles away - I don't want to drive there every day picking up whatever fresh-that-day eggs they have for sale, especially with gas prices what they are. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks. Loved the experiments!

Hi Karen, I do tend to waterglass same day,, because I can, but I wouldn't be worried about using eggs a day or two old provided that they haven't been washed. I don't know if washing the bloom off the egg would have an effect?

@karenw9996 2 жыл бұрын
@@EnglishCountryLife I'll keep that in mind, and ask the farmer (her teen daughter really) if she would consider keeping a full day's lay for me. If I can do that 2-3 times it would make a big difference. I could still freeze some, and eat those first. And yes, washing off the bloom allows the lime water to soak into the egg, so that's a huge no-no. Thanks for the day-old option, it makes me more hopeful!

Some of my eggs froze in the shell in the bottom drawer of the refrigerator. I rinsed them and the shell came right off since they crack from expansion. I defrosted them for 30 sec or so on 50% power in microwave and scrambled them. They were just fine. If I had let them defrost overnight in refrigerator out of the shell I think they would be ok to fry. Im trying that on two of the eggs tomorrow and I’ll report back.

Hi Daniel, honestly the only way we will freeze them is as beaten egg. Like that they work well in omelettes or as scrambled eggs - and also in batter for Yorkshire Puddings or pancakes and brilliantly in cakes. Without beating, the yolks go hard although the whites are fine. As a result we just freeze beaten egg now.

I have found that freezing hard boiled egg can make removing the shell (after thaw of course) a little easier. And like the raw eggs, I've found that if you put a soft boiled egg in the freezer, the yolk will still come out firmer. As to why the whole eggs didn't leak, I suspect it's because the inner membrane didn't split... if you've ever put a raw egg into vinegar and let the shell dissolve off, the egg still stays together because the membrane is still intact.

Interesting. It’s almost like the yolks have been cured. I wasn’t expecting that. I had one whole egg that I’d frozen that did that and wouldn’t mix in to what I was baking. It had little yolk flecks throughout. But I thought it had been in the freezer too long. I didn’t think it would do it after one night!

@@EnglishCountryLife very odd! I’m wondering about the suggestion below somewhere to add salt or sugar to beaten yolks before freezing. When my girls are laying again I might try that one. It seems to me it would contribute to curing the yolks, not stop it, but when I have egg abundance again I won’t mind wasting a few to see what it does. I waterglassed eggs this year. I’ve used a couple of them and they seemed fine, but weren’t really old yet. I should probably bake something this weekend to test them out again. I now have a lifetime supply of lime as I had to buy a 20kg bag of it and used only 60g in the little jar I did! 😂😂😂 After I’ve moved I am going to buy a freeze drier so once I have that I’ll do eggs in there, but it’s not at the top of my list of things I need to save for so it might be a couple of years away so I’ll use up some of the lime. I’m sure I’ll find uses for it. My move is getting closer. I may have a buyer for this place who is willing to do a very long settlement so I have time to find my next place. He’s coming through next week.
