If you're making boiled eggs, older eggs peel better.

Eggs last for a really long time though, as long as reasonable caution has been taken on storing them.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11924993310937754220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-47617366091225538682017-09-20T07:22:21.594-04:002017-09-20T07:22:21.594-04:00John started it:

I won't use eggs that totally float, ones that stand on an end I save for baking.<br /><br />My mom taught me this trick.
