jill the potter Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 A bit of a daft question but.... the other really cold and very frosty morning, when I went to collect my one and only egg from Korma (bless her) I noticed that it was really quite cold, almost icey!!. Just got me wondering that if you collected an egg that had been frozen was it then ok to leave it at room temperature until we ate it? or should it be maybe kept in the fridge? (OH thinks I think about things too much? ? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 The egg wasn't actually frozen when you collected it was it????? I've never collected any frozen eggs, cold ones yes, but not frozen. But eggs themselves can be frozen but not in their shells. Use within 6 months. Egg whites freeze ok but for white+yolks they say add sugar or salt before freezing so they don't have a glutinous texture when thawed. I've never tried it myself but this website makes interesting reading: http://www.britegg.co.uk/faqs/startfaqs.html#Anchor-Can-23522 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill the potter Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 No, the egg wasn't actually frozen, I was just wondering what you would do if it did as the weather has been so cold and frosy recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
