How long can uncooked scrambled eggs be kept in the refrigerator?

Question

I'd like to crack and scramble a dozen eggs and then use them as needed. How long can they safely be kept? How about if they are frozen?

Does anyone know of a commercial real whole-egg frozen scrambled egg product? Local supermarkets only have the low cholesterol versions.

Answer 1

uncooked scrambled eggs = beaten eggs.
Kept covered, beaten eggs will keep about 3 days.
Frozen can keep for several weeks. It's probably good to sub-divide the beaten eggs into serving size portions when you freeze them. That way you defrost only what you need.

Yes, there are whole-egg products which contain whole eggs and a little citric acid.
You might want to look in the freezer section in your supermarket.
Other than that you'd have to find a place that caters to restaurants... you can also try places like Smart&Final or Cash&Carry.

I've never eaten any myself. I might like to try it sometime. Ostrich eggs weigh approximately 3 lbs., equivalent to 18-24 chicken eggs. The eggs resemble and taste like a chicken egg. Compared to chicken eggs, Ostrich eggs have increased portions of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are most desirable in our diet. Ostrich Eggs may be boiled whole: Cover the egg with cold water and boil for 2 hours, add ing water as needed. Let egg cool in cold water for 15 minutes. Once cool, use a small hammer or similar sturdy kitchen utensil to crack shell. Peel away the shell and egg membrane. The egg will now resemble a large chicken egg and can be used in any of your favorite recipes. Ostrich Eggs may be scrambled: Scramble an Ostrich Egg just as you would scramble chicken eggs. One Ostrich Egg yields 10-12 servings. Ostrich Eggs in baking: 1/4 cup Ostrich Egg equals 1 chicken egg in any recipe. The egg whips up smooth and fluffy. Freeze what's left for later: Ostrich egg can be frozen once removed from shell, then quickly defrosted when needed. Helpful Hint - Distribute egg yolk evenly in an ice cube tray for easy removal and cooking.

Answer 3

if they are uncooked ( as in the first part of you q) i would say a day, if you have cracked and scrambled them already... you should be able to keep them for a couple of days depending on the freshness of the egg, but i wouldnt keep them any longer than that unless you have your own hens!
