Frozen eggs, safe to eat?

[chris]

Was just about to ask the same thing Snadger.. I know people seperate yolks/whites and freeze in icecube trays, but this way (what you're thinking and myself alike) is easier

I like have a nice one egg lump, the ice cube thing required too many calculations ! I guess I'm just lazy lol

[chris]

How long do they keep for, frozen?

[Mell]

i believe, food frozen at the right temprature keeps (ie is safe) indefinatly, but some quality and taste may be lost.

Eggs frozen are , in my opinion, best used in dishes, for eggs as stand alones I tend to pickle or dry

I just freeze enough for winter use, great for cakes and baking - I don't think I would keep them for longer than six months. You wouldn't nee them come Feb!
I beat them up well and pour them in food bags and freeze in 2's, 3's and 4's ready for each recipe. Defrost in the fridge. I make my Christmas cakes from frozen eggs every year.
You can seperate the white from the yolk if you want but I belive you have to add a pinch of salt or sugar to the yolk to stop from thickening up too much. Although even when white and yolk are frozen together they are much thicker when defrosted.

What vinegar do you pickle with Mell? I've done some in white wine vinegar and can't say I'm impressed. They do seem to be getting a bit tastier the longer i leave them though!

It varies depending what taste I want, I tend to like quail best in white wine vinegar, but they have a more delicate taste. But red is nice too. The ducks I generally do with malt an some spices pepper, mace etc. Cider vinegar can be nice ! You need toleave them long enough for the vinegar to penatrate right through. Is it hens eggs you are using ?
