How do I wash farm-fresh eggs? My aunt recently gifted us a carton of eggs fresh from her chickens.
I've been rinsing them off thoroughly with each use, but I'm not really sure if this is enough to make sure they're sanitary for consumption.
What's the appropriate way to wash eggs when they come directly from a chicken, instead of being store-bought?
Note, I'm talking about just before using an egg, not washing all of my eggs at once.
(from what I can see on the internets)
Just continue what you are doing.
Just before using:
Softly brush off dirt and debris and rinse for a couple of seconds under running water.
