How To Check An Egg Is Fresh

Here's a quick trick to tell if an egg is good for eating, or has gone stale.


Step 1:

The Trick

Carefully drop an egg into a large glass or bowl of water. If the egg sinks it is fresh, if it floats, it is passed it's best.

The reasoning is, the more the egg ages, the more air is contained within the shell causing it to float.

If the egg lies on its side it is ok, if it stands on its point it isn't. If it floats it is REALLY past its best!!
