FabSwingers.com forum: What 3 things ?.... food

It's breakfast time and my food stock is running low. (Until Friday big shop) But there's some things I can always rely on. I always have cheese in, cheese on toast is always available to me.

What 3 things are most likely to always be in your fridge?

Worcester

Usually a bottle or two of vino but none at the minute due to hols diet.

I stock up daily so there are always sliced meats, eggs, cheese and milk so an omelette is always available and hubby does a mean omelette.

It's not personal and it's a multi reply but you shouldn't keep eggs in the fridge.

You often shock them when you boil them depending on which method you use.

I opened the fridge door once when I was naked. It shocked the bunch of spring onions on the bottom shelf.

And it has to keep them fresher for longer surely - sometimes when you break an egg you can see it's not as fresh in the shop as you would like.

Right...here goes. The temperature change when storing the eggs is the problem. They don't do well with going hot/cold/hot/cold, So never store them in a fridge door. Bad idea.

If you keep them on a worktop, keep away from sunlight hitting them.

Best advice. Keep on a cool shelf somewhere, it is ideal. Also never ever wash an egg.

It's the change in temperature. If you open your fridge door, and leave it fully open for a minute, that's warmed the fridge up, and could take a while to cool down again. And it's that fluctuation that messes with the egg. Makes it go bad quicker. That's why some don't agree with storing in a fridge.

So in a kictchen cupboard or larder where the temp usual is constant , your use by date is pretty safe.

Pointy side down.

Haha I goggled too - this is interesting 2The racks in the fridge door are the worst place to store eggs. The constant shaking thins the whites and the flavours of other foods can penetrate the shell.’

eggs can be kept well past the use by date - thats just a rule for buyer and seller to advertise as fresh eggs - i know a lady who has free range chucks and we go visit and walk her dogs and take a basket - find loads of eggs - all have been fine and we have no clue as to how long they have been there

Honestly I had a long conversation with a lady about eggs, I never knew what an Ice breaker it was until afterwards.

But it's amazing that something we consider a food danger, we don't know the safest way to store them.

The article I read found no difference bacteriologically in cold or ambient storage of eggs, though if salmonella IS present, it will multiply in the ambient and not the refridgerated.

But I do get the point about quality and things like thinning of the white - I might try an experiment and change the way I keep some and see if it resolves that.

I can honestly say. i didn't expect the thread to go in this direction.

Keep us posted with the results. Try shelf first, if your not back next week. We'll keep them in the fridge.

It's when I crack one to fry it and the white spreads half way across the pan, and then another will 'sit up' and remain plump. I thought it was about freshness, but maybe not....

If you pop a fresh egg in water, and it sinks and sits horizontally on the bottom, it's really fresh.

If it tilts slightly not so fresh. It it stands vertically or floats it gone off.

If it tilts slightly not so fresh. It it stands vertically or floats it gone off.

Put the blunt end of the egg against your lips as if to kiss it. If your lips warm up it means the air sack is intact. Another way of testing the freshness.

Along with the fridge tip this is my second helpful bit of egg advice today.

Yes ladies I am single and believe me these tips are just the tip of the iceberg.
