The Chinese have advised four ways to store eggs

Users of the Chinese WeChat portal named four effective ways to keep eggs fresh without a refrigerator.

So, commentators suggested covering the eggs with cotton cloth. This technique is most often used by sellers in the village markets in the summer to protect the thin shell from bacteria getting inside through the pores, RIA Novosti reports.

In addition, WeChat users advise that rice will help preserve the freshness of the product – put the egg with the blunt end down in a bowl filled with cereals. “Fine rice flour will close the pores on the shell and protect against bacteria, as well as prevent moisture from evaporating inside the egg,” the users explained.

In addition, eggs can stay fresh for a long time if rubbed with sesame oil or other edible oil, readers shared. They also advise wrapping the product in plastic wrap and placing it in a cool place to extend the shelf life.

As a fourth method, users suggest putting eggs in a bowl of water with the addition of a saturated solution of calcium hydroxide. Such a liquid will have good bactericidal properties and will significantly extend the shelf life.

We will also remind that earlier dietitian Mikhail Ginzburg listed products that can help prevent problems associated with gallstone disease. In particular, these are eggs, called by the physician “the champion in the content of lecithin, which belongs to the phospholipids that pack cholesterol molecules and prevent the formation of stones.” Your dietitian recommends eating five eggs a week.
