All about Eggs

If you want to save your egg yolks after separating, preserve them by putting them in a small bowl and add two tablespoons of SPAR Sunflower Oil. Cover and refrigerate. The yolks will remain soft and fresh.
A fun way to separate eggs. Use an empty SPAR water bottle. Squeeze out a little air. Place it over a cracked egg and voila just the yolk is sucked up intact.
After beating egg whites do not tap the beater on the bowl. It causes the egg whites to lose a lot of their fluffiness.
Eggs will beat up fluffier if they are at room temperature before beating. This makes lighter meringues and better sponge cakes.
To test whether an egg is hard-boiled, spin it. If it spins, it is hard-boiled; if it wobbles and will not spin it is raw.
Cut hard boiled eggs with a knife dipped in water first and the yolk won’t break.
Egg whites won't run while boiling or poaching if you'll add a little Spar white vinegar to the water. Remember to make sure you use fresh eggs.
Egg shells can be easily removed from hard-boiled eggs if they are quickly rinsed in cold water first. It also helps to put a little SPAR White Spirit Vinegar in the water you boil them in.
