Cooking with eggs is a staple in many kitchens.
Whether you’re baking a cake or making scrambled eggs, it’s important to choose eggs that come from healthy chickens. Luckily, there are simple ways to determine the quality of an egg before using it in your recipes.
You may have noticed that most eggs have a yellow yolk, and we tend to associate that with a healthy egg. However, the color of the yolk can actually vary depending on the diet of the chicken.
Free Range vs Store-Bought
There are two main types of chickens: free-range and those raised for commercial purposes. Eggs from store-bought chickens usually have yellow yolks. While this is generally considered a good color, there’s an even better indicator of a healthy egg.
