Preserving Eggs

Tweet

With the average price of eggs at $4.99 a dozen I think a lot of people will want to find some ways of preserving them. If I find a good deal on some I will buy several dozen. It is easy to just freeze them in muffin tins. I get a big pan or plastic bottom and then put muffin liners inside, close together so they support each other. I pour an egg into each and freeze them. They can last for 4 months to a year. There is also the dehydrating method. You pour out an egg onto a silicone dehydrated shelf and spread it out as thin as possible. Dehydrate for 6 hours at 222 farenheit in a dehydrator or oven. You need to do this method twice to get them good and dehydrated(dry). Then grind them and put them in a measured, tight container. This can last for 5 years. Be sure to date the container. Something I forget to do sometimes. When you go to use them pour 2 Tablespoons of water with them in a container and stir. See what consistency you have. You may need a teaspoon or two more of water. They can be used to scramble, bake or whatever. These are easy methods and can help me save a lot of money.
