How to Freeze Eggs
Step one, get a chicken. Or forty. Be sure you have complete control of them. Good luck with that. You’ll need a big garden rake…. ….to drag the eggs out from the very back-back-darkest-back of the dog house. They’ll change to a new hiding place soon, so good luck with that, too. Just be glad they’re laying. To make the most of your own fresh eggs, freezing eggs is an alternative to eating omelets for breakfast, quiche for lunch, and custard for dinner every day of the week when they’re laying heavily. By the way, that’s one big honkin’ egg there, isn’t it? This is what it looked like inside–two yolks. Printer-FriendlyHow to Freeze Eggs: Whole Eggs Break eggs into a bowl then pour into a strainer and through to a second bowl. This allows the whites and yolks to mix gently without adding air. Yolks Only Break yolks into a bowl. Whites Only Break whites into a bowl. Easy! The chickens love that. I mean, you know what tightwads they are with their eggs!!! See All My Recipes Printer-Friendly

Food Storage Without Electricity - Top 10 Foods to Stockpile
Food Storage Without Electricity More than one group of experts are talking about increased risk of soaring food prices and economic instability. With recent droughts and other natural disasters around the world, our food production and delivery system is under a lot of of stress.
