Detailed explanation-1: -Refrigerator Storage: Refrigerate eggs at 40°F or less. Store them in their original carton on an inside shelf and away from pungent foods. The temperature on an inside shelf remains more constant than one on the door, which is opened and closed frequently.
Detailed explanation-2: -Leftover raw egg whites and yolks should be put in airtight containers and stored in the refrigerator immediately. To prevent yolks from drying out, cover them with a little cold water. Drain the water before using. When storing hard boiled eggs, you may notice a “gassy” odour in your refrigerator.
Detailed explanation-3: -Store in the fridge for up to four days. Whites in an airtight container will also keep in the fridge for four days. Freeze egg whites in an airtight container for up to six months. Thaw and bring to room temperature before using.
