Before I answer, does anyone know what the two parts of the white are called, or what the difference is, or anything about that?
I'm not talking about the yolk but the two parts of the white.
This is very interesting, because usually I find, and I even tell people, that I have a very poor sense of smell.
But definitely, they don't seem the same to me. I've definitely smelled H2S
And I'm pretty sure I've smelled true rotten eggs, since I'm not one of those natty guys who takes care that his eggs don't rot.
In fact, eggs will keep in the refrigerator for easily 3, probalby 6 months, probably longer some times, without problems. And even then they usually don't rot in the fridge, but just dry out. So I must have left them out of the fridge some time.
Even broken eggs can usually be used. Take all the other eggs out of the egg carton and pour the egg into the pan. If the outer membrane is not broken, the eggs will keep at least a day or two even if the shell is broken.
