Ok..So Ive been checking out some articles and videos on this method and it seems to be a method with the best results.
I'm going to try it and use them this winter.
Has anyone ever done this?? Another name for this way of preserving eggs is waterglassing.
If you never heard of it...
It basically is a solution of using hydrated lime powder and mix it in water using a 1 oz lime to 1 quart well, distilled or spring water.
Only UNWASHED Clean farm fresh eggs can be used, No poop on them. Store in a food safe bucket in a cool dark closet with a lid. Make sure to not let solution evaporate over time, refill as necessary.
I found some youtube vids on it as well as follow up ones after the eggs have been in the solution and the folks were fairly convinced it is a sound way to keep eggs. Back in the 1800's this method was apparently utilized and still today it seems to be a cost effective method.
I just bought a 50 bag for 11 bucks.
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone has done this and otherwise any info
