Udi 8yr I heard that eggs in the US get cleaned in such a way that the protective coating on the outside gets stripped off and that's why we have to refrigerate them. But, freshly laid ones, I think you can safely keep them outside. Not sure how long though. -
MargaretG 8yr My brother, who is a farmer, keeps his eggs unrefrigerated and unwashed up to 2 week but that makes me nervous.

mrscorco 8yr @FarmerDave thanks for the tip! @MargaretG @mirasingh 2 weeks sounds good. Hopefully they'll be gone before that! @Udi I read about that somewhere. Possibly on food stand! :) -

mrscorco @akhilg2002 yes, but I had made the ginger-scallion sauce ahead of time! Otherwise it was super fast to chop the mushrooms, throw in the ramen, bok choy and other ingredients!

LezEngel My first thought: stir fry! Or if you have some broth on hand, a soup.
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Definitely second the broth!
I appreciate days like this when I don't have to chug a glass of coffee at five am and call it "breakfast"
