Eggs eggs and more eggs!

thanks, i only do disastrous baking unfortunately and hurt too much to go out for flour to have another go. (i feel right sorry for myself today, lol)
Tortilla sounds good though, will that keep? Is it like a quiche without the base? or pan cooked?

Can raw pancake mix be frozen - just a thought?
cheese and potato pie make and freeze?
My son's favourite tea - flour eggs bit of milk tin of drained tuna, grated cheese, sweetcorn if you've got it - mini pancake/fritter things.

The link above seems to indicate that you can freeze them! Not something I have tried, but may be worth a go?

Great ideas people, thank you all

Have you a recipe for cheese and potato pie ubamother? It sounds lovely.

Freezing eggs sounds weird doesnt it? I might try it on a couple though.
I hate waste and I'm so annoyed with myself for dropping them. It must have been such a comedy fall i was trying so hard to save them.:D

I wouldnt use any where the inside membrane has been broken,
considering where they have been,:D:eek::rotfl:

Never frozen whole eggs, but whites freeze very well and yolks can be made into custard which also freezes well. But obviously this depends on how damaged the eggs are as to if you can separate them out.

Ooh custard! Theres an idea! I have some cream in the fridge too, though OH raided our strawberry patch on Sunday so I'm guessing theres probably not very much left lol.
How much cream do you need to make custard?

The eggs Ive saved are all still whole in the shell, just the shells are cracked and some have leaked the white a bit, the broken yolk ones went the journey.
Does anyone know how long they'd keep cracked but in the fridge?

We're all so OS we've all posted about the eggs and not you - I hope the fall didn't crack or break you in any way?!

HA HA, no, I just grazed my knees a bit and hurt my wrist, nothing major, i ache a bit today mind, I dunno what happens when you grow up I used to fall all the time when I was a nipper, think nothing of it and get on my way, it'd be forgotten about by tea time. I could barely get out of bed i ached so much this morning!

Thanks again anyway you lot, I knew I'd get help here
I'm having a go at making tortilla, but putting a bit of grated edam in too, its been lurking in the fridge for waay too long.

Oh for goodness sake.

What do you do when a bit of shell falls in your egg when you crack it then? Bin it?! I think we all know that eggs come out of hens' bums thanks.

Of course you can use them if the membrane is broken. They were all intact when they were bought weren't they?
