How to Tell If an Egg Is Fresh: The Simple Water Test

Thursday, October 10, 2024

Eggs are a breakfast favorite, but sometimes it’s hard to tell if they’ve gone bad. Thankfully, there’s a super easy hack to figure it out: the water test. All you need is a glass of water and your egg!

​Here’s how it works:

  • If the egg floats, toss it—it’s past its prime and not safe to eat.
  • If the egg sinks but stands upright, it’s still okay, but you should use it soon.
  • If the egg sinks flat on the bottom, congrats! It’s as fresh as can be.
@cookistwow How to tell if an egg is still fresh and safe to be eaten? 🤔With the egg test, naturally! 🙌😍 How does it work? 👇 All you have to do is sinking an egg into a glass filled with water: ❌if it floats, that means that it’s no more fresh and safe to eat; ⏰if it sinks to the bottom but stays upright, it’s still fresh but consume it as soon as possible; ✅if it sinks, it’s fresh. From now on, if you want to check if your eggs are fresh, do the egg test 😉Have you ever tried it? 😎👇 #cookistwow #eggtest #freshness #learnwithcookistwow ♬ original sound - 🖤
