Egg Freshness Test 🥚
A quick and easy kitchen tip to check if your eggs are still good to use.
How It Works
💧 Fill a bowl or glass with cold water and gently place the egg inside.
Fresh Egg → Sinks flat to the bottom
About 1 Week Old → Slightly tilted but still at the bottom
Older Egg (2–3 Weeks) → Stands upright
Very Old Egg → Floats to the top
Why Eggs Float
As eggs age, air builds up inside the shell, making them more buoyant in water.
Helpful Tip
Even if an egg sinks, always crack it into a separate bowl first and check for any unusual smell or appearance before using.
