COOKING EXPIRED EGGS?
Most of us buy eggs in cartons that have an expiry date and we forget about them after stashing in the fridge. We realise and find the expiry date has passed, but there are good number of eggs remaining. Can we use it? Will our health be affected if we eat expired eggs? Are these questions on your mind sometimes?
Go ahead without any fear!
As long as Eggs are refrigerated, they are good for 3 weeks after you buy them. By then, the expiry date on the carton might have passed, but the expiry date is only a standard followed by the manufacturers, its not to do with their edibleness or freshness, and it won't affect the taste or safety, especially if we are cooking the egg.
Cooking and boiling eggs fully kills all bacteria.
Old eggs are not so fluffy if we are whipping up cream or a cake icing, for whipping, only fresh eggs can be used.
