Farm fresh eggs


 The week before Christmas, my neighbour brought us a frozen fish and farm fresh eggs!  The eggs still had dirt and straw on some of them!  I noticed when I microwaved one it was overcooked at my usual 35 seconds.  I googled best to store eggs pointed end down in an egg carton for freshness.

Hmmm, farm fresh eggs! When I still had a car I got those from my Brother´s village - it IS a difference to those from the supermarket.

Che buone le uova fresche.
Noi abbiamo il vicino di casa che ha le galline e in estate avendo noi l'orto, barattiamo le verdure con le uova 😄

Farm fresh eggs are such a treat! It’s amazing how different they can be from store-bought ones, even down to cooking times. Great tip about storing them pointed end down for freshness!

Did you wash the plume off the egg? And fresh eggs have a softer shell than store bought.

Don't you love the different colors. One of our granddaughters raises chickens and we get eggs from her that look like yours. Yes, they still have some dirt on them, and the yokes are Soooo yellow/orange. I do love eggs, and those are the best!

Did you know that if you don't wash the eggs they don't need to be refrigerated?
