Water glassing eggs

[Hedgelj]

So i tried water glassing some of our fresh eggs this fall. Used up some tonight from September and made scrambled eggs. Tasted normal, smelled normal, yolks broke a little easy.

I've considered this several times, but haven't done it yet. Good to hear your experience.

That's insane a guy at work was just telling me about this the other day Ive never tried it but it sounds like it's definitely worth looking into!

I have more set aside, we haven't bought eggs since our chickens started laying until last week for the holidays.

I'll keep this thread updated

My daughter used some more water glassed eggs yesterday when they were of school to make a chocolate cake for the family. Worked just fine.

My grandma and aunt have waterglassed eggs as long as I can remember and the only issue I've seen is occasionally you get a bad one (prolly an older egg that didn't get found for a few days). This is not a problem as long as you are cracking them into separate bowls. If you're cooking and drop one into the batch, well....lol

We used another 2+ dozen for a few dishes for my daughter's birthday party today. They would have been gathered in October. The only thing is the yolks are fragile and break easily when you crank them into a bowl.

Pretty impressive. Guess I need to get some big jars!

I used a few wide mouth quart mason jars, can only get 9 or so in them. I bought 6 2 quart mason jars for this reason for next year. I also bought a few of these because I'm only looking for air tight and they've worked well.
