TIP AND HINTS

When purchasing eggs, choose only those eggs that are stored in a refrigerator case. Refrigerate eggs until ready to use. (For baking, eggs may be placed in a bowl of warm water for 5 to 10 minutes to bring them safely to “room temperature” for best baking results.)

Eggs should be stored in the carton in which they were purchased to keep them from drying out and absorbing refrigerator odors. The eggs should be in the carton large end up - this will help them stay fresh longer and will keep the yolks centered.

Don’t know if your eggs are fresh?

Place them in a bowl of salted cool

water. If they sink, they are fresh – if they float, they are not.

To prevent the development of bacteria in cooked egg dishes, eggs should not be left at room temperature longer than 2 hours (count preparation as well as serving time.)

Chill and refrigerate hard cooked eggs immediately after removing from the Egg Cooker. For best results, plunge cooked eggs into a bowl of ice water - this will stop the cooking process and prevent a dark ring from developing around the yolk.

Is the egg hard cooked or raw? Can’t recall which ones you have cooked?

Play spin the egg. A cooked egg will spin, a raw egg will wobble.

Fresher eggs (less than a week old) are harder to peel than those a little older.

To peel hard cooked eggs easily, roll gently on the counter, using the palm of your hand to crack. Dip in a bowl of cold water and begin peeling from the larger end.

Hard cooked eggs in the shell will keep for up to one week properly refrigerat- ed. Hard cooked eggs out of the shell should be used immediately.

Hard cooked eggs that have been col- ored and displayed decoratively should not be consumed - enjoy their colorful display and discard. Cook extra eggs for eating and consider the discarded eggs an inexpensive way to decorate.

Hard cooked eggs make a colorful, fla- vorful and nutritious garnish. They can be sliced, wedged, finely chopped or pressed through a fine sieve to make a powder-like garnish.
