As the most common ingredient in daily life, eggs are rich in a variety of nutrients needed by the human body, and are essential for almost every family.

So when we buy eggs.
How can you tell if it's fresh?
[One look, two touches, three shakes].
Look, look at the surface of the eggshell is not shiny, there are no obvious cracks or spots;
to the touch, to the touch of the rough touch;
Shake and gently shake the egg without a sense of shaking.
Meet the above three points.

In addition, if you cover the egg with your hand and look at the light with one end, if you see a faint and uniform red color on the inside of the egg, you can also make sure that the egg is fresh
If you already have eggs at home, but you are not sure how long they have been stored and whether they are fresh, you can put the eggs in a 10:1 salt water mixture, if they sink, it means that the eggs are fresh.
Finally, can you crack the egg and see if the yolk is whole? If the egg white is sticky and does not flow away with the yolk, it is fresh and can be eaten with confidence.
