Water Glass and Grease Methods for Preserving Eggs
An old reliable method uses sodium silicate or water glass to preserve 14 to 15 dozen eggs per quart of solution. Mix nine quarts of boiled cooled water with one quart water glass in a 5 gallon crock, ensure eggs stay fully covered, then store. A newer grease method coats each egg with a beeswax and white petroleum jelly blend to seal pores, wrap, carton, store cool and dry, and turn cartons every two weeks to prevent stuck yolks.
