Stop eating eggs like that! (Nutritionist reveals the reason)

The color of the yolk doesn’t indicate whether the egg is farm-fresh or commercially produced. It almost always depends on the hen’s diet:

Diets with corn, fresh grass, or carotenoids → more orange yolks

Standard diets with fewer pigments → lighter yolks

Both are nutritious, so don’t worry too much about the color.

Practical tricks with eggs

How to peel them more easily

As soon as you finish cooking:

Submerge them in very cold or ice water.

Tap the bottom (where the air cell is).

The shell will come off easily.

How to prevent the egg from cracking while boiling

Add a pinch of salt or a few drops of vinegar to the water.

If it cracks, the white will coagulate faster and won’t come out completely.

Why are they sometimes hard to peel?
