A Bad Egg? How To Test The Freshness Of An Egg Using The Water Float Test
If you are a regular viewer of the channel, you will know that Ken is used to farm life. Not only has he raised livestock in the past, but his in-laws have a farm where they raise sheep, chickens, etc. In fact, in many of his cooking videos, Ken will often talk about he eggs he uses coming from his in-laws' farm. Recently, Ken and his wife were gifted some older eggs. As Ken tells it, he told his wife, "Not many people probably know how to test an egg for freshness." To that, his wife replied, "Then make a video about it!" So, that is what this video is all about!
While there are many ways to check the freshness of an egg, the easiest may be the water test. Naturally, most home tests for freshness rarely actually tell if an egg is "bad" or not. Instead, they usually can only tell if the egg is older or not. As Ken notes, even a "not fresh" egg is most likely still edible. The French used to be fond of old eggs for various culinary applications. Still, in our culture, we embrace a "fresh is best" approach whether it is or isn't. This is quite possibly due to the fact our automated approaches to feeding the masses often means meats, dairy, eggs, and produce are infected with diseases private farms may not deal with. Moreover, our government makes mandatory guidelines for food producers which may or may not serve the public any benefit. For example, the "best by" date is an USDA mandate where egg manufacturers must put an arbitrary date on the egg carton that is approximately 30 days after the egg was processed. It says nothing as to whether the egg is "bad" or not and it surely says nothing about the bacteria and diseases the egg may carry.
Either way, whether you are new to raising chickens and eating farm fresh eggs, or if you just happen to have some old eggs that are a little "iffy;" be sure to watch this video so you can learn how to tell if an egg is fresh or not.
