Eggs is rich in proteins and everybody needs them. However, handling eggs incorrectly will incur contamination. Let's learn together. Here you go -
We should select and buy only clean and uncrack eggs and store in the refrigerator. DO NOT WASH the eggs until we want to cook it. Washing too early will causing the protective layer removed, resulting the eggs easily damaged.
There are 2 kind of trays that you may use to store eggs :
1. Original egg tray - this kind of tray with eggs are not advisable to put in the refrigerator because of its material is not proven hygiene. Due to the open egg storage, the egg might have dirts on the egg surface (which we overlooked while purchasing) and it will incurr cross contamination.
2. This plastic enclosed container is equipped with egg curves that ease the storing of eggs in static. It is suitable for eggs storage in the refrigerator.
After storing the egg into the plastic egg container, keep it in the lower part of refrigerator and mae to close tightly. Wash the eggs when want to cook.
