2. Overcooking Eggs at Extremely High Temperatures

Cooking eggs for excessive periods or at very high temperatures may reduce some heat-sensitive nutrients.

Burning or charring eggs can also negatively affect flavor and texture.

Moderate cooking methods, such as boiling, steaming, or gentle scrambling, are generally recommended.

3. Using Eggs That Are Cracked or Improperly Stored

Experts advise avoiding eggs with cracked shells, unpleasant odors, or signs of spoilage.

• Kept in their original carton.
• Used before their expiration date.
• Cooked soon after cracking.

Proper storage helps reduce the risk of bacterial contamination.
