To check freshness eggs without breaking them, you can conduct a simple test with water.
This was reported by “URA-Inform” with reference to Radiotrek.
To do this, you will need only a container of water and yourself eggs. Place the egg in water and watch its behavior:
A fresh egg lies horizontally on the bottom, suitable for consumption.
A week-old egg rises at an angle, its quality is slightly lower , but it is still safe to eat.
An egg older than three weeks floats to the surface, indicating that the air chamber inside has increased. It is better to use such an egg with caution or not eat it at all.
< p>Also, if you hear gurgling sounds when shaking the egg, this indicates a loss of freshness: over time, the white and yolk liquefy, creating more air inside. Such an egg can be used in cooking after heat treatment, but is not recommended for raw consumption.
Recall that earlier it was reported how to distinguish genuine leather from leatherette in 10 seconds: a simple method was named.
