Eggstra! Eggstra! Read all about ’em!
How come you don’t refrigerate your eggs? If my eggs come into the house without any schmutz on them, I can leave them on the counter. They are protected by what the hen seals them in, called a bloom. It protects the egg from any bacteria getting into it; hence, refrigeration is unnecessary. If I clean them, then I immediately refrigerate them. They do go into the fridge eventually, but it’s nice having room-temperature eggs for baking and breakfast
