What happens here

Be aware that a significant percentage (up to 80%) of backyard or homegrown eggs can carry harmful bacteria like Salmonella or E. coli on their exterior surface. This bacterial presence is on the protective bloom and, while it doesn't typically penetrate the egg's interior, it poses a direct risk of cross-contamination if not properly removed before cooking or baking. Therefore, a specialized cleaning method is necessary.

Goal: Safely clean eggs using a specialized enzyme wash.

What they say

Hide

something a lot of people don't think about. There's up to 80% of backyard homegrown eggs have either salmonella or ecoli on the outside of your eggs. It doesn't come from the inside. It's literally sitting on the outside on the bloom, which is what the bloom is protecting your eggs from, >> right? >> And so people don't think of that sort of number. And for years, of course, people wash their eggs with sponges or rags or whatever, and that bacteria ends up just sitting on your sink with that. The good egg wash.
