I just took the dogs out, and discovered that while bringing in groceries last night we apparently set a carton of eggs down on an outside table and forgot them there! Should I just throw them out? They are also ALL cracked, from the freezing. |

I think you can use frozen eggs, but I don't know about trying to deal with the shells and stuff. |
The problem is you will need to use them IMMEDIATELY, once the shell is cracked the bacteria get in the egg. So you have to thaw quickly and use immediately.
OMLETS for dinner? |
I have frozen egg whites and used them later with no problem. I don't know if frozen yolks can be re-used. |
BUT, I wouln NOT refreeze them once they have already been frozen. I think she is going to have to use em up quick. |
Too bad Easter isn't this weekend |
BUT, an interesting thought, if you could hard boil them and make a big old batch of egg salad!!! |
How about a big batch of egg nog. Heavy on the burbon to kill the bacteria, of course!! YUM, it will help warm you up too.

Thanks, All!...hmmmm...Eggnog...theres a thought! |
Frozen eggs can be used in any recipe calling for whole eggs: cookies, cakes, etc. However the problem comes from their possible contamination in this case due to exposure to the outside of the shell. As a cashier in a super market, we usually check the eggs being purchased by a customer. If one egg is broken we replace the whole carton and trow the one with the broken egg out due to danger of contamination. Personally since I do a lot of baking, I buy frozen eggs by the case of 6 half gallon cartons, keep them in the freezer and thaw them out as needed. Nothing wrong with refreezing them in this situation either. |
How interesting! I have NEVER heard of freezing eggs. |
