Storing Eggs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Store your eggs in their original carton to help protect eggs and prevent them from absorbing fridge odours, and keep them in the body of the refrigerator (not the door!) to make sure they maintain a cool and consistent temperature. Keeping them in the carton also ensures you always know the best before date of your eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are some tips for storing leftovers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
