How people cook with it
Eggs are a fundamental ingredient in kitchens worldwide, used in countless sweet and savory preparations.

- Scrambling for breakfast
- Making omelets and frittatas
- Binding ingredients in meatballs
Eggs can be cooked in many ways. They can be fried, boiled, poached, or baked. For scrambling, whisk them with a splash of milk or water and cook gently in a non-stick pan. When baking, eggs contribute to structure, leavening, and richness. They are also essential for creating emulsions, such as in mayonnaise or hollandaise sauce. The shells are useful for adding calcium to garden soil after being cleaned and crushed.
How it differs from similar foods
Organic eggs differ from conventional eggs primarily in how the hens are raised. Organic standards dictate feed composition and prohibit certain farming practices. Medium eggs are smaller than large or extra-large eggs, which can affect recipe ratios if a specific size is called for.
Who it is for
Home cooks and bakers who prioritize organic ingredients and seek a versatile staple for daily meals.
How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store these eggs in their original carton in the refrigerator. Keep them on a shelf rather than the door, as the temperature is more consistent there. This helps prevent them from absorbing odors from other foods.
