Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic gas, flammable and much-feared by miners. It lurks in low wells and caves, and can suffocate, poison, or explode people. Keeping eggs in the fridge cause the growth of bacteria on the shells and this turn and enter the insides of the eggs, in turn making them inedible.
Hence, according to many studies, eggs should be kept at room temperature for ideal consumption. Yes, you can probably eat those expired eggs and never look back.
If refrigerated, eggs typically stay safe well after their expiration date. Regardless of what that date actually is, the optimal storage time for raw eggs in their shells, according to the USDA, is 3 to 5 weeks. Cooking eggs until both the white and yolk are solid will kill any Salmonella bacteria. Foods made with raw or lightly cooked eggs are not recommended for young children, elderly people, pregnant women and people who are already unwell.
Hard-boiled eggs, peeled or unpeeled, are still safe to eat up to one week after they were cooked. If you throw your eggs out once the date on the carton has passed, you may be wasting perfectly good eggs.
With proper storage, eggs can last for at least 3—5 weeks in the fridge and about a year in the freezer. The longer an egg is stored, the more its quality declines, making it less springy and more runny. The Kitchn says boiling your eggs in cramped real estate ensures your eggs don't cook at the same temperature, and as a result, all come out in different stages of doneness. You wouldn't think it, but a problem also arises when you try to use eggs that are too fresh, because doing that means your eggs will be that much harder to peel, as the whites become more bonded to the shell.
Then there are the times when you find a green ring around the egg yolk The biggest issue with hard-boiled eggs is one that you probably wouldn't notice if you've been eating them the same way all your life, and that's that you're overcooking them, which is where the dark ring around the yolk comes in — plus bad texture.
Not only are these eggs hard to look at, but the texture of the yolk is dry and chalky, and the flavor is something akin to the overly-sulfuric aroma of chronic flatulence. While Korbee is at odds with The Kitchn over the temperature water should be before eggs are dropped in Korbee thinks the water should be boiling, while The Kitchn recommends the eggs and water are boiled at the same time to keep the eggs from cracking ; both agree that eggs should be slid into an ice bath as soon as they are retrieved from the pot so you can cool them down as soon as possible.
And the most important tip, no matter what method you use to cook your eggs? Use a timer," Korbee said. For him that means a nine-minute boil for a creamy-textured yolk that's a brilliant yellow, and 11 minutes for deviled eggs. You should not eat overcooked eggs. This happens especially when you overboil the eggs. If you have noticed, overcooked eggs have a green coating on their yolk, which is a signal that you should not eat them.
If you cook them for too long, the protein toughens becomes rubbery and a greenish or purplish ring forms around the yolk. Extremely fresh eggs are not recommended when making hard-boiled eggs, as they are very difficult to peel. Put the pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once the water is at a rolling boil, turn off the heat and cover the pot with the lid. For this reason, poached and boiled either hard or soft eggs may be the healthiest to eat.
Black—or green or red—inside of an egg is a bright neon sign of infection. Because the egg was only two days old, and because it was handled like all the other healthy eggs, I was certain one of my hens was suffering. The most noticeable sign that a hard-cooked egg has gone bad is the odor. If the egg has any sort of unpleasant, sulfurous, or rotten smell, it has gone bad and should not be consumed.
