How To Find A Good Egg

From LoveToKnow Recipes

Instructions

  1. A hen egg should weigh 2 ounces.
  2. A good egg should be transparent in the light.
  3. Place the large end of an egg against the cheek. If the egg is fresh, a sensation of warmth is felt.
  4. Place egg in water with a little salt. If the egg goes to the bottom, it is fresh. If it stays in the middle of the water, it is 2 or 3 days old. If it floats, it is 5 or more days old. This does not apply to cold storage eggs.
