Did you know?

A fresh egg does more than taste better.

The yolk

That deep-orange yolk isn't a fluke.

Hens that forage on real pasture eat greens and bugs full of carotenoids. It shows up as a richer color, a fuller flavor, and yolks that stand up tall in the pan.

In the pan

Fresh whites actually hold together.

A just-laid egg has thick, firm whites, so it poaches into a tidy little cloud and fries without running all over the place. Old store eggs go flat and watery.

The float test

Not sure how fresh an egg is?

Drop it in a glass of water. A fresh one sinks and lies flat. If it stands up or floats, it's past its best. Ours won't be doing much floating.

In the kitchen

Better eggs, better everything.

Custards set silkier, mayo whips up thicker, pasta dough turns golden, and cake tastes like it means it. A good egg quietly upgrades whatever you make.
