Question
Why should eggs not be washed before storing?
Advertisements
Solution
- Washing eggs can remove the natural protective layer from the shell.
- This covering prevents microorganisms from entering through the shell’s pores.
- Without the covering, eggs are susceptible to infection.
- It is better to store eggs unwashed and wash them just before use.
