After buying, I always take a dozen eggs and just pour them into ice cube trays, says the author of the channel "Typical Housewife" on Yandex Zen. Why am I doing this?
Firstly, it is very convenient: I always have eggs in my freezer and they can be used to prepare any dishes, just like fresh ones. Fresh eggs do not last long with us, because omelet or scrambled eggs are the favorite breakfast for the whole family. And when I cook something, it often happens that there are not enough eggs in the refrigerator or not at all. Instead of running to the store, I just take them out of the freezer.
And often there are egg yolks (after making meringue or protein cream). I use them for cheesecakes, for making homemade mayonnaise or custard, and also for greasing pies. But, of course, not immediately: usually I just freeze the yolks and they are stored in the freezer and wait in the wings. In the same way, proteins can be frozen if they remain after cooking.
On the subject: Why is it dangerous to keep eggs on the refrigerator door?
I no longer puzzle over where to put the remaining yolks and whites - I just freeze them!
The main advantage of frozen eggs is their long shelf life. They do not lose their properties after defrosting. Eggs can be stored in the freezer for 3-4 months. During this time, I will definitely find a use for them. Although, this usually happens much faster.
And a definite plus: frozen eggs beat better and faster (after defrosting, of course). Tested on my own experience more than once!
