Pasteurizing eggs

Course Eggs

Instructions

  • Wash the eggs with soap and water and let come to room temp 15 minutes.
  • Put the eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Set the heat to medium and bring the water temperature to 140-150 degrees F.
  • If you don't have a cooking thermometer, there will be the beginning of the smallest bubbles forming in the water just before it reaches 150 degrees.
  • Remove the pot from the heat source and let the eggs sit in the water forĀ 3 minutes.
  • Remove the eggs and let them come to room temperature before using. You can also store them in the refrigerator for later use.

Notes

Cook's note: After completely drying the eggs, I use a marker to write a P on eggs I've pasteurized and put them in the fridge.
 
Simple!  :)  Enjoy your pasteurized eggs in all your recipes that call for raw eggs!
