Safety and Storage Precautions
- Cold Chain Management: Store in the refrigerator at temperatures below 5°C immediately after purchase to maintain internal quality and extend the shelf life.
- Original Packaging: Keep eggs in the original cardboard tray to protect the porous shells from absorbing strong odours from other fridge items like onions or fish.
- Hygiene Standards: To prevent cross-contamination, always wash hands and kitchen surfaces thoroughly after handling raw eggshells or egg contents.
- Thorough Cooking: Ensure eggs are cooked until both the white and yolk are firm to eliminate the risk of foodborne illnesses, particularly for vulnerable individuals.
