How do you know if an egg is raw or cooked?
It can happen that when you take an egg out of the fridge you don’t know if it’s already cooked or not.
In that case, there are a few tricks to help you tell the difference.
- Turn the egg on a flat table. If the egg spins well and quickly, it is already hard-boiled. The raw egg tends to lose speed because of the liquid white and yolk.
- Another way to do this is to stop the egg you have just spun on the table at once. Only the hard-boiled egg stops moving completely. The fresh egg continues to wobble for the same reason, namely the liquid nature of the white and the yolk.
- And for those with a keen ear, shake the egg next to it. If you hear liquid and noise, you’re set! The egg is raw!
