Hey girls, have you ever thought about freezing eggs to avoid wastage? I discovered this tip recently and it has changed my cooking! The other day, while baking a cake, I ended up with too many eggs.
Rather than let them go to waste, I tried freezing them. And what a surprise!

It is important to note that although eggs are an important source of these nutrients, they should be consumed as part of a balanced diet to avoid deficiencies or excesses.
Additionally, the effects of consuming too many eggs or vitamins vary from person to person depending on their overall health and diet.
Step 1: Preparing Whole Eggs
Action: Lightly whisk the whole eggs.
Tip: Avoid whisking too vigorously so as not to incorporate too much air.
This can affect texture when defrosting.
Putting into containers: Pour the mixture into freezer-safe containers.
Tip: Use ice cube trays for individual portions. Once
frozen, transfer the egg cubes to an airtight freezer bag.
This makes it easier to portion them out later.
Conservation
Duration: Eggs prepared in this way can be stored in the
freezer for up to one year.
Labeling: Remember to label the container with the freezing date
