Eggs are essential in many dishes, but proper storage is crucial for freshness and safety. Refrigerate raw eggs between 35\u00b0F and 40\u00b0F (1.7\u00b0C to 4.4\u00b0C) to keep them fresh for 3-5 weeks. Store them in the original carton to avoid odors.
\nHard-boiled eggs can be stored in sealed containers in the refrigerator for up to a week. Cooked eggs, like scrambles or omelets, should be cooled completely before being stored in sealed bags, where they remain good for 3-4 days.<\/p>\n
Liquid eggs in cartons last up to a week past the \u201csell-by\u201d date if unopened but should be used within two days after opening. Egg replacements last 10-14 days when sealed and refrigerated.<\/p>\n
To prevent Salmonella and other bacteria, store eggs at temperatures below 40\u00b0F (4.4\u00b0C). In warmer climates, avoid leaving egg-based meals at room temperature. For freshness, use the \u201cfloat test\u201d: fresh eggs sink, while older eggs float due to a larger air pocket. Proper storage ensures eggs remain a reliable and enjoyable kitchen staple.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
