Do you keep your eggs in or out of the fridge?

Out of the fridge.
The yolks of eggs from the fridge will break more easily (when making fried eggs) and don't cook as nicely because of the fast temperature change (like with steak you need to bring it to room temperature before cooking it to ensure the middle gets heated through properly, and it improves the texture of the meat too because of how the foods structure is affected by heat/cooking).
But then most of us have been taught to cook eggs quickly, but eggs respond best to slow/gentle cooking.A waist is a terrible thing to mind.0 -
In.
They'd be smashed all over the kitchen if it was out.. plus they go off quicker.
I've not found any difference with yolk breakage with fridged/non-fridged eggs .. and I always cook them at a low temp as I can't stand crispy bits on them.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

I put tomatoes in the plastic holder, but space them out as they are often bigger. I keep a couple out of the fridge for imminent use.
