I was just wondering..........can you freeze eggs?!

Answers: You can, but we’re not sure it’s worth it. Yolks don’t take to freezing very well. They become very gelatinous and you usually mix separated yolks with a bit or salt or sugar before you freeze them to keep them from turning to rubber (and you label them well so you don’t have to guess if you mixed them with salt or with sugar). Raw egg whites do not suffer from freezing (cooked egg whites are very rubbery after freezing).

no
i don't think so
Restaurants use frozen egg product. There's other stuff in it besides eggs. It comes frozen in cartons and is used for scrambled eggs and omelets.
yeah they can! or of u don't believe me try it!u crack and egg when its frozen it turns to jelly~
wtf how would u freeze an egg
Yes you can
You can freeze egg substitute in the carton, but freezing whole eggs is not recommended. It breaks down the fragile proteins, and it will defrost into a goopy mess. Also, it will expand and break the shell, absorb odours from your freezer, and there is too much of a rsik for cross-contamination.
Yes you can. I raise poultry and freeze my excess eggs during the warmer months to use in baking around the holidays. The easiest way to do it is:
1) spray a plastic ice cube tray with no stick spray
2) break and scramble an egg, pour into the tray using 1 egg per "cube"
3) freeze
4) break the ice eggs out of the tray and store in a tightly sealed bag.
5) be sure to label the bag (like 1 cube = 1 egg)
I've used these for baking for years and they work great.
Why not? But may be they will lose their quality...
YES, absolutely.
Eggs can be frozen, but not in their shells. Thaw frozen eggs overnight in the refrigerator or under running cold water. Use yolks or whole eggs as soon as they're thawed. Here's how to freeze eggs:
Whole eggs: Beat just until blended, pour into freezer containers, seal tightly, label with the number of eggs and the date, and freeze.
Whites: Break and separate the eggs one at a time, making sure that no yolk gets into the whites. Pour them into freezer containers, seal tightly, label with the number of egg whites and the date, and freeze. For faster thawing and easier measuring, first freeze each white in an ice cube tray and then transfer to a freezer container.
Yolks: Egg yolks require special treatment. The gelation property of yolk causes it to thicken or gel when frozen. If frozen as-is, egg yolks eventually become so gelatinous they are almost impossible to use in a recipe. To help retard this gelation, beat in either 1/8 tsp (0.5 mL) salt or 1? tsp (7mL) sugar or corn syrup per ? cup (50 mL) egg yolks (4 yolks). Label the container with the number of yolks, the date, and whether you've added salt (for main dishes) or sweetener (for baking or desserts).
Hard-cooked: Hard-cooked yolks can be frozen to use later for toppings or garnishes. Carefully place the yolks in a single layer in a saucepan and add enough water to come at least 1 inch above the yolks. Cover and quickly bring just to boiling. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, in the hot water about 15 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain well and package for freezing. Hard-cooked whole eggs and whites become tough and watery when frozen, so don't freeze them.
Substitute 2 tbsp (30mL) thawed egg white for 1 large fresh white.
Substitute 1 tbsp (15mL) thawed egg yolk for 1 large fresh yolk.
Substitute 3 tbsp (45mL) thawed whole egg for 1 large fresh egg.
You can freeze hardboiled eggs, but the eggwhite taste a bit leathery after it has been defrosted. But it is possible. I froze some vegetable lasagne once that contained sliced egg and it came out fine.
yes you can freeze eggs but not whole eggs .
what you have to do is mix them up as if you were to try and freeze whole eggs in their shell the shell would just crack as they froze and even if you took them out of their shell the yolks would just split
Sure. But they will almost certainly crack if you do. Which would make for a mess when they are thawed.
