Using an egg that is not fresh can affect the taste of recipes and even cause health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, there is a simple and effective method to determine whether or not an egg is fresh, and all you need is a glass of water. This trick will allow you to check the freshness of the eggs in seconds, without having to open them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Como_comprobar_la_frescura_de_los_huevos_con_un_vaso_de_agua\">How to check the freshness of eggs with a glass of water<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this method, you&#8217;ll not only avoid risks, but you&#8217;ll also get the most out of your ingredients. Make sure to practice it and share this trick with your friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Procedure:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fill a glass or container with cold water to three-quarters of its capacity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Carefully place the egg in the water to observe its behavior:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>If the egg floats completely on the surface:<\/strong>\u00a0The egg is spoiled and should be discarded. This occurs because the air accumulated inside the shell makes it float.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If the egg is kept tilted in the water:<\/strong>\u00a0It means that the egg is old, but it is still safe to consume, although its quality will not be optimal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong class=\"\">If the egg sinks and lies on the bottom:<\/strong>\u00a0The egg is fresh and ready to use in your recipes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Councils:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Check the peel:<\/strong>\u00a0In addition to the water test, check that the shell is clean and free of cracks. Eggs with damaged shells are at higher risk of being contaminated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Smell as a last resort:<\/strong>\u00a0If an egg floats but you&#8217;re not sure, crack the shell into a separate container. If it has an unpleasant smell, discard it immediately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Store properly:<\/strong>\u00a0Store eggs in the refrigerator to prolong their freshness. Place them on the main shelf, not on the door, as temperatures are more stable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use old eggs for certain recipes:<\/strong>\u00a0Although older eggs aren&#8217;t ideal for stir-fries or omelets, they work well in recipes where they&#8217;re mixed with other ingredients, such as biscuits or cakes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eggs are an essential ingredient in the kitchen, and their freshness is key to ensuring both the quality of the dishes and food safety.
