If you are worried about whether or not the egg is fresh, put in in water deep enough to cover it plus a few inches. If it floats at all, don't use it. If it lays still on the bottom, it's good.

I have a catering business and I was always lead to believe that any eggs used should have the lion mark which tells us that the eggs are salmonella free,and these will have a best before date as well..

when u crack the egg the white around the yolk should be prominent above the rest of the white, also the water suggestion above is a good indicator but u should but a little bit of salt in the water,
