I lived in England a bunch of years ago - and went to a french cooking school - I learned that the english and the french did not believe in refrigerating eggs. If they are refrigerated, in proper french cooking, you are suppose to let them sit out until they reach room temp before you cook them. It takes a long time for eggs to go bad - my friend bought bad eggs at the value master - she brought them back and came home with another batch of rotten eggs. I wondered if they came from the usa - already spoiled - like that 25 year old frozen chicken backs they talk about in the movie "Life and Debt" I really don't trust buying super market eggs in negril -

Speaking of warm eggs. You can check the chicken to get a 'feel' for when the egg is going to be laid. I think the chickens are a lot braver than some men. I feel the need to wash my poor pointer finger off just thinking about it:-). We raised chicken but kept the eggs warm because we had no fridge.

I to use to notice that Jamaicans would love to get a meal (when I lived there) and would not like the way it was cooked.We would just eat our meal and not worry about them.It seemed that the meal would somehow get better after we were eating.Mystery eh !!!! hehehe

I have to say I eat fewer eggs in Jamaica. The non-refrigeration thing skeeves me. And I've cracked my share of bad ones (I use the pre-crack method too). We do have a local source in my neighborhood but he sells out quick to the little local stores around me so its hard to just grab a dozen on the fly directly from him. So - instead, I watch for when he's making deliveries and head to Dora's or Wise Choice immediately after...I know they are super fresh and I stick them in the fridge immediately. "Once in a while you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right..."

I used to date an executive chef. I learned some pretty good cooking techniques from her, including the secret to the best greek ribs ever.

My mom taught me how to test an egg to see if it's rotten, before you crack it open. Fill a mug/bowl with cool water. Plop in the whole egg. If it sinks, it's good. If it floats, it's bad. I've had some that bob around in the middle, not really sinking and not floating on top. I err on the side of caution and toss 'em. |
