We get 20-30 eggs every day. I have dehydrated eggs in my pantry but have never had to use them. We also don’t wash any eggs until we’re ready to use them. They are stored in cartons in my cottage refrigerator. We have such an excess that we donate to a food bank every week and I keep my mom supplied with eggs too. Mike found a clutch of eggs one time when a hen decided to lay hers in the corner of the goat house. We used the float test and only had 1 bad egg. I love my chickens and can’t imagine life without them. God Bless!
I water glass eggs every year. I use pickling lime, 4 level TBSP to one quart water. I've eaten eggs that are two years old with this method, love them!
This video is precisely why I follow you, and I suspect Why so many do. Good down to earth tried and true knowledge thats practical, informative, and without overly loud obnoxious music. You are appreciated.
I was taught by my mom to always crack an egg into a separate bowl. She was brought up during the depression so you can't waste anything, so never put an egg into the other ingredients till you know it's a good egg. 😊
I recently started dehydrating our eggs. Our ladies are laying around a dozen a day. I tested the 1st batch out after storing them for 2 weeks. I was skeptical at first, but very pleased when I ate them. They tasted as good as fresh! I will not be water glassing my eggs any longer!
I waterglassed some for the first time last year. I don't need to try them because I have fresh eggs. Your video reminded me to get them out and cook them up for the animals. I always keep dehydrated eggs on hand too. Thank God for chickens! Edit: You were right. They had been in the pickling lime for about 7 months and they were watery. My animals will be thrilled with them though
Ran into a woman the other day whose neighbor is getting 4-5 dozen eggs PER DAY! So I told her to tell the woman she can preserve by water glassing, dehydrating, or freezing. Also told her of a store near her that sells local eggs, so hopefully they'll all be getting used soon, rather than wasted.
Yes! I have just made 2 Mason jars of water glassed eggs. I get about 6-8 eggs in glass. 3 tbs of pickeling lime and a quart of filtered water. You can use gallon jars etc. Store in cool dry place. I did mine about two weeks ago so at end of month I'm gonna test the quality. Now only thing is placing eggs in jars pointy side down! And don't Crack them when putting in jars or can't use. Also want to use fresh eggs with bloom still on. I'll share how it goes.
Thank you so much for this video Heidi. I really appreciate it. I feel stupid because I didn't dehydrate eggs when they were available. We are lacking eggs in Norway 😢. Some years ago, we didn't find butter for Christmas, this time for Easter, we don't find eggs. These are examples that we have to be prepared for the lack of food. And we are even blessed, we find other types of food. 😊 God bless you Heidi ❤🙏❤
In the UK, during ww2, water glassing eggs was very popular. They would be put in a big galvanised bucket, inside a wire egg basket, to lift them with. They would be covered with the solution, lid on, in the pantry. They would keep for months.
I moved across the country and had no refrigerator. I bought one from Facebook marketplace and got ripped off. FORTUNATELY, I was able to purchase DOZENS of UNWASHED EGGS that lasted all through the winter!! I wish I hadn't run out, but I'm hoping to get some "used" hens😂. In the meantime, I am using my kitchen floor to "refrigerate" my nasty Walmart eggs and haven't died yet. I'm HOPING to have a "new" refrigerator by June as it's not as chilly as it once was😂. I may have to pickle my eggs until then, but that sounds yummy (use for deviled???) also. I'm not intentionally living like a prepper, but I may as well make the best of my circumstances and determine what CAN be safely done to preserve my food in whatever unconventional way is possible, right?
Thanks For this video. I will be going back to rewatch the dehydration of eggs video. We increased our flock and soon will be needing to dehydrate eggs. Happy day. Blessings 🙏🙏🙏
Warning! If you have an egg that has started developing, (I live in an area of Texas where late Spring through early Fall the ambient temp stays warm enough to incubate sometimes) they will not float! Breaking them one at a time into a separate container will avoid an unpleasant surprise from ruining your batter, or whatever you're making.
When my daughter and family were living in Thailand, the eggs in the grocery store was just out on the open shelf right along with canned goods. She took them home and left them on a shelf out in the open in her kitchen. She had no problem with them and they were not in a cool place. I understand this is common in other places around the world as well. But, yes, I do powder my extra eggs as well.
This would be common if the eggs were left unwashed because the bloom, which is a coating the hen adds to the eggs just before she lays them, is what preserves them and they can last several months like that
If you mean the brake bleeder pump, you can find those in an auto parts store or on Amazon: amzn.to/3vUZAUH And here are the jar sealing tops to use with it: amzn.to/4aWaOH9
I do pickling lime water glassed eggs. They last very well. This is our 4th year doing this. We definitely learned to use distilled water for this, not our well water.
Thank you sincerely for sharing information as you do,many of us are so caught up in the grind of life we don’t have the time to do full research from step one. Hope your day is filled with joy & happiness & know you are very appreciated✌️❤️🇺🇸😅
Thank you Heidi! This gave me a great idea! You may remember the challenge I've had with my chickens since the feed debacle. They're laying but not as much. You gave me the idea to use the dehydrated eggs I have when I make bread. (It's almost like a brioche) Woo-hoo! Thank you! 🤗 Blessings! 💜
Thanks for this update, Heidi. Just did 2 quart plus 1 pint jar of dehydrated eggs. I'd try the glassing but short on space. I have 2 jars from 2022. On a different note is there a special reason you're resting the land this year? I understand Doug and Stacy are too? Jewish Smeta was done every 7 years, (2022_-23, on their calender, land rested). OT command from God. Bless you, yours, and those grands.
I just did my first batch of dehydrated eggs yesterday. It was so easy and they look great! I hope you try it! I got 36 of our average sized eggs into one quart jar. It took about 12 hours total. I dehydrated for 10, then powdered them and put them back in for two hours (that was a tip I saw in the comments on another of Heidi’s videos from another listener). We use an Excalibur dehydrator and I set it to 115 degrees, for reference.
@@twofarmers2773 Thank you for the temp settings/process. Still trying to find a used/cheap dehydrator with temperature settings, but can't wait to get processing. The toaster oven DOESN'T work at ALL 🥺.
@@twofarmers2773Thanks for mentioning that you put them back in the dehydrator. I'm going to try this as well. I'm still learning, and most everything I learn is from Heidi.
I have not convinced my husband to get a few chickens, and I have quite a few neighbors who I know will sell me eggs. Currently, I buy from a couple that attends my church, and that is working out well. I have tried the water-glassing method, and I liked how they came out and lasted a good while. I've also tried the oiling method--and they stay good, but there's something a little odd about the way the yoke sticks in there, like almost stuck to the shell. So I won't be doing that any more. You're right about how much room water-glassed eggs take up. I can see doing some that way, especially since me and my husband both like sunny-side-up eggs. But the next thing I really must do is powdered dehydrated eggs. I need to work up my courage--it’s a new thing, and I hesitate badly with new things!
When we get ready to freeze eggs we use the silicone cupcake cups set inside metal cupcake pans, scramble 1 egg per cup, cover, freeze, pop em out of the silicone cup, put how ever many eggs wanted in a food saver bag, remove air, seal, date & stack in freezer. Works great even after a year the eggs still tastes the same as fresh. Still haven't tried dehydrating it is definitely on the very long list of learn to do's. lol
Curious.... Since it's spring and good dandelion picking season...do you have a dandelion wine recipe? I've never made wine but I'm feeling beginners empowerment with learning new things especially from you 😊. Thank you so much
I personally have never made dandelion wine as we do not go through wine very quickly and get way more than enough from our grapes, berries, rhubarb, and apples
I have froze my excess and water-glassed some too. But I must admit that I haven't had the nerve to break into the water-glassed eggs. And I probably won't either. I am going to try the dehydration method though and see how that goes.
Will have to watch your dehydrating eggs. Been chicken to do them. Right now I just rub oil on my eggs and put in fridge. Have water-based eggs. But stopped as egg shells are porous so was concerned.
That is why one is only supposed to use those that still have the bloom on them, however, I was also concerned about using sodium silicate (waterglass) because I would be concerned about the bloom being soaked off and then it getting into the eggs
We do not refrigerate our eggs that we get from a local raw milk farm. We have enjoyed these fresh farm products for many years. This year I’m going to try dehydrating them. Water glass does take up room I don’t have.
SO GLAD u touched on this.....UNWASHED EGGS.... So it is fine to store them in the fridge but does that prolong the use of the egg longer than just in a cooler room?
We have duck eggs and chicken eggs. The chicken eggs usually always pass the water test. However, the large pekin eggs do not. They sank like fresh chicken eggs. But they were rotten as could be. Do you know of a more reliable way to test them? The smaller duck eggs so far seem to test the same as chicken eggs. Thanks so much! This video was very timely 11:58 .
I'm just starting with dehydrating eggs, I have a good bit of water glass eggs. My question is could I take some of the older glassed eggs and dehydrate those before the 18-24 month timeframe to give them a longer life. Thanks and love all you do.
I show it in the egg dehydrating video that I linked to in the description box but here is one specifically on my newest set up: ua-cam.com/video/TTPoNTxud6U/v-deo.html
I have only ever dehydrated whole scrambled eggs as I have had no need to keep them separate. Merengue is something I rarely make but I used to more often years ago. Now for pies, I prefer a whipped cream topping instead. And I never need yolks only.
Yes I have some water glassed eggs! But I also have started dehydrating most of my foods for storage. Do you think you could "can" your homemade mayo for longterm storage? (I haven't watched your mayo video completely yet--i think I started it a long time ago and didn't finish it....)
No, canning it would not work as heating mayo turns it to liquid and causes the fat to separate. As fast and easy as it is to make mayo, there is really not need to can it anyway, as long as you have fresh or frozen eggs on hand
Heidi, I've dehydrated eggs several times following your videos. (I'm relatively new to all food preservation.) I've used temps from 115 to145 and put them in jars when completely cool. I've used them pretty quickly testing the rehydration and flavor, etc. I'm just not sure ... One tablespoon of powder is equivalent to one fresh egg?
Question: I have two gallons of lime water jarred eggs. They will be a year old in June 2024. Can I now pull those out and dehydrate them or will the lime affect something? Thank you!❤😊❤
Freeze dryers are FAR more expensive. You could buy 15 to 20 dehydrators for the cost of the cheapest freeze dryer. However, there are other means food can be dehydrated without even buying those but I would not trust my eggs to stay raw using an oven as the temp does not get low enough
That may be a bit too low but you can try it with a small amount as see if it will work. Too low may cause it to take too long and then one can have spoilage to high would cook them
@@georgeingridirwin6180 It is possible you can set them on a lowest rack and have the oven on broil instead of bake so only the top element heats up and fine a way to keep the oven cracked open a bit to allow moisture to escape
Years ago I cracked a store bought egg directly into my cake batter to be greeted with the most horrible stench and to find a chick that was no longer viable. Ever since then I break eggs into a separate bowl and add 1 at a time.
I think the fishy smell is because of lethicin. Like anything cooked with soybean oil to me smells fishy and so I had stopped using that years ago. Egg yolks have lethicin in them so that might be the cause.
I've waterglassed eggs...I suggest a person uses a half gallon or smaller container. Sometimes you'll have a weak egg and a few months in it'll break, then you have to toss the contents of that jar. My son likes pickled eggs. Though they aren't USDA approved, they turn out fine. I figured if they can sell them in local stores, I can make them also. I don't have a refrigerator. I have a chest freezer that I firm on a couple times a day to keep the stuff at the bottom frozen, and the refrigerator type stuff on the top cool. Most of my eggs stay out unwashed. If I get too many, I'll wash them and coat them with mineral oil and give them away to neighbors. I have chickens and ducks. BTW, I found out from a person who's allergic to chicken eggs that they can eat duck eggs just fine.
@@RainCountryHomestead I don't see why it isn't the same your still turning animals into cannibals just like the English government did with a very bad out come ...

Heidi, I've dehydrated eggs several times following your videos. (I'm relatively new to all food preservation.) I've used temps from 115 to145 and put them in jars when completely cool. I've used them pretty quickly testing the rehydration and flavor, etc. I'm just not sure ... One tablespoon of powder is equivalent to one fresh egg?
Yes, and the amount of water you add to that Tablespoon will be 1-3 Tablespoons

Dehydrating machines are so expensive...I would love some leads on less expensive ones!!!
Freeze dryers are FAR more expensive. You could buy 15 to 20 dehydrators for the cost of the cheapest freeze dryer. However, there are other means food can be dehydrated without even buying those but I would not trust my eggs to stay raw using an oven as the temp does not get low enough

That may be a bit too low but you can try it with a small amount as see if it will work. Too low may cause it to take too long and then one can have spoilage to high would cook them
@@RainCountryHomestead thanks. From that point my oven jumps to 170° as it's lowest temp. And I thought that might be too high.

Can you put the fresh eggs in lime into food grade white buckets?
While I would assume it is possible, that would be something you would need to look into as I have not done that
I have seen water glassing in food grade buckets on other channels. Simple Living Alaska did it.
Yes, you can use food grade buckets. I prefer glass and use 2 gallon sized jars with the lid

Salmonella is on the OUTSIDE of the egg ... poop = salmonella
It is just another boogeyman being used to terrify people
I've waterglassed eggs...I suggest a person uses a half gallon or smaller container. Sometimes you'll have a weak egg and a few months in it'll break, then you have to toss the contents of that jar.
My son likes pickled eggs. Though they aren't USDA approved, they turn out fine. I figured if they can sell them in local stores, I can make them also. I don't have a refrigerator. I have a chest freezer that I firm on a couple times a day to keep the stuff at the bottom frozen, and the refrigerator type stuff on the top cool.
Most of my eggs stay out unwashed. If I get too many, I'll wash them and coat them with mineral oil and give them away to neighbors. I have chickens and ducks.
BTW, I found out from a person who's allergic to chicken eggs that they can eat duck eggs just fine.
Not sure about you feeding the eggs back to the chickens 😮that didn't work very well in England with the cows 😢a whole lot of mad cows disease 😱🥺
Everyone I know who keeps chickens does this, not just me. It is a common practice. It is not at all the same thing you are talking about
@@RainCountryHomestead I don't see why it isn't the same your still turning animals into cannibals just like the English government did with a very bad out come ...
