She is now water glassing our extra eggs from the hens. They will last fresh for a year.

What is water glassing eggs?

She places fresh, clean eggs in a solution of water and slacked or hydrated lime or sodium silicate. Keeps them fresh for the winter. Lots of youtubes to show how but it is real simple.
