00:00Here's how to freeze your eggs, culinarily speaking.

00:03Unfortunately, you just can't stick a full carton of eggs in your freezer and expect

00:07it to work.

00:08To freeze eggs, simply crack them into a bowl, beat them lightly with a fork, and then portion

00:13them into ice cube trays to freeze.

00:15You can put a quarter cup of whisked egg in each hole.

00:19A quarter cup usually equals one large egg.

00:23You can also freeze egg whites and egg yolks separately.

00:26The yolks need a little bit of a different process.

00:29Add a little salt or a little sugar, and just beat that in with them before portioning

00:33them into the molds, and that will prevent them from thickening as they freeze.

00:37With the whites, just whisk them very gently to loosen them up, and then portion into the

00:42ice cube trays just like you would the whole eggs.

00:45Frozen eggs are best used within four months, but they will keep in your freezer for up to

00:49a year.
