When I was a kid many, many years ago, my parents preserved eggs in “water glass” (liquid sodium silicate) in a crock. When mom needed an egg, she sent me to the basement to fetch one out of the crock. They were fine for 4 to 8 months.

No kidding??? That is really interesting. Were the eggs raw in the water glass? Or did they boil ahead?
I wonder if that is where folks got the idea for pickled eggs...never had one but have seen them in old bars! lol
