The eggs will probably keep if you seal the pores. You can also use alum water and submerge the eggs.

Personally, I use dried eggs for cooking if I'm living on stored food.

Long term stored shell eggs are not so good for frying (the older the egg, the weaker the yolk), but make great pastries. I generally keep eggs on the counter this time of year.

Easier to keep chickens. ;)

Thanks for the info. I would love to keep chickens. I don't think I will be able to keep chickens in our subdivision at present. When SHTF, I expect a lot of people will start this. However, on days like today, I am glad I don't have to feed chickens or do anything to go outside. LOL.

We have lots of squirrels and rabbits running around in the yard. Still every now and then I like a good old fashioned breakfast of eggs and all the other greasy stuff like bacon, ham, sausage, hash browns, biscuits and gravy.

I recall that my Grandparents kept eggs in one of the cooler rooms of the house year round-they seemed to last quite a long time without refrigeration. Hubby thinks that they should be refrigerated, so I humor him.

I still have a bunch of dried egg whites I am trying to use up in cooking. We got them to add protein to Dad's diet on doctor's orders.

I would like to get some dried whole eggs that would taste good as scrambled eggs. Some have suggested Ova Easy Eggs. Do you have a recommendation or observation about that?
