I have read you can freeze eggs for later use. Has anyone tried this and just how successful is it? Techniques?

Thank you ladies for all the information. This is funny, I was talking to a dairy man about this yesterday. He had an abundance of eggs. I will tell him this info.

Thanks again!!!!!!! Everyone is so helpful here at MJF!!!

Thank you all for all the good information. I'm going to give it a shot. I just wanted to find something to do with my excess eggs from my hens so I can still have them in the dark winter days when the laying slows down.

I crack eggs into a bowl and beat completely but do not incorperate air. 3 tbsps equal 1 egg. I freeze them in ice trays and then transfer to a freezer bag. My ice trays only hold 2 tbsps in each hole so for me 3 cubes equal 2 eggs.

When I need to seperate the yolk from the whites and stir, the yolks tend to jel so you need to add 1/8 tsp of salt for every four yolks. 1 tbsps of yolk equals 1 egg. Freeze like above.

To freeze the whites just seperate and freeze as above. 2 tbsps equal one egg.

I make oven bake omeletes so for that I beat a dozen eggs together and freeze in a freezer container and mark as such so I don't have to count out the singles.
I thaw them out over night in the frig.

Do you have to break the yolk first? I always wanted to freeze the extras, just never tried it

how sweet it is to love some one, how right it is to care

Julie, they will work well for scrambled, but not fried.

I use an Ice Cube Tray and then transfer them to a freezer bag. I just use them in baking and such. I have never tried them fried or scrambled or anything.

break each one into a ice cube tray, 1 in each cubes spot, freeze and pop out into what ever freezer container you prefer.

I've read that you crack open the dozen eggs and then re-pour them into the individual cups in the cardboard carton for later use. Don't use sytrofoam. Good luck.
