So why don't they type "preserving eggs" into google - no shortage of

But also on a bread recipes (or some such) newsgroup so maybe just for
historical reasons (IIRC she at one time did have BC).

Seems eminenlty sensible.

Eggs, are IIRC sterile when laid but dry out by diffusion through the
shell. So the suggestion you get if you do that google of rubbing fat
(lard, butter etc) over the shell as a quick and dirty method of
preserving eggs has much to be said for it.

The "advice" she gave was cock anyway, since she didn't even know which
solution is used to preserve eggs, nor how to use it. I'd be happy to
repeat the advice I gave last time but you can find the thread using
Google groups, so repetition seems a bit pointless.

We used to preserve up to a hundred each year, many years ago now, in
a very large crock, using a solution of isinglass.

Quite. Unpleasant comments like some of those above merely reflect

I've no direct experience but I do recall a sailor who circumnavigated
Antarctica in the early 1970's bought his supplies for the voyage
including hundreds of freshly laid eggs from Southern Chile.

His book says how he contemplated different storage methods and
isinglass was one treatment he tried. But he spread his chances -
mainly due to lack of time before he set off and he left a good
proportion of his eggs untreated. The best results were from storage
in the bilge at around 5 deg C with no other treatment. If I recall
correctly the eggs were still edible at 9 months but he said most
people would have declared a slightly earlier cutoff point.

I still have the book but it is not immediately to hand to check all
the details - the title is Ice Bird by David Fisher, long out of
print but it's available secondhand from numerous online
booksellers/listing sites.

When I were a lad we'd no fridge and my mother would store eggs bought in
bulk at a good price in a new dustbin in the cupboard under the stairs
which was always cool - no central heating either. And they'd last for
months. Maybe not 'fresh' but not 'off'.

the supermarkets don't put them in a fridge, do they.

No - but look at the 'best before' dates. Most think they'll poison you if
eaten after.

I much prefer paper copies to a computer screen.

Just before I took early retirement, they were introducing computers for
all the associated books and paperwork we had before. At least with
paper, you can fan through it and it is surprising how quick the eye is
at picking up on the very piece you are looking for. I'm too old for all
this computer related searching now :-(
