Ewwww. I cracked open an egg today and it part of it was half frozen. Are they O.K. to use? I tried "googling" but all I could find was information that eggs can be frozen but not in the shell (which of course they are) . Has anyone ever used these after they are accidently frozen? I don't understand because the fridge is at 36 degrees.

I have been a kitchen disaster, haven't I Danielle?
That's what I get for not being at work 11 hours a day. I get more time to trash the house and ruin meals.

Karen - I pass my Google Crown to you!


I will let you know if they are gross

I would think they would be okay say for baking. According to my book "Will it freeze" : Whole eggs, stir lightly with a fork to blend the white and the yolk and add 1/2 tsp salt or sugar to every 6 eggs to prevent thickening. Label container carefully to quantity abd whether sugar or salt has been added. Or they can be frozen in ice cube trays. Transfer frozen cubes to ziploc bag. Can be frozen up to 6 months. Thaw at room temperature for 40 minutes.
This book is from the early 80's and I refer to it constantly for freezing suggestions. Hope this helps!!

Thanks Gail
I'm going to try them. I have banana bread to make today
. They are still in the shells. I tried moving them down to a lower shelf.
