How to properly store eggs: 1) Every day that an egg is kept at room temperature is equal to 7 days in the fridge 2) never use the "egg rack" in the bottom of the door. Every time the door is opened, the eggs are exposed to rapid temperature change and shutting the fridge door causes the yolk to be jostled. 3) Eggs should be stored on the lowest shelf of the fridge to maintain constant temperature. The upper shelves are exposed to extreme cold. 4) Store eggs large end up to keep the yolk centered in the egg white. Eggs from the supermarket come packaged upside down and should be turned over before going into the fridge. 5) Store bought eggs can be stored 3-5 weeks in the fridge in kept under 40 degrees. Unwashed fertile eggs from a local producer can be kept longer. Always use the float test if unsure of the age of the egg.
