Versão em Português
Versión en Español

You can, paying attention. Whole eggs in the shell can't be frozen, even boiled eggs. To freeze whole eggs, you need to take it of from shell, whisk slightly with a fork and a pinch of salt or sugar.
Egg whites can be frozen without care, but yolks must to be slightly beaten with a little salt or sugar. You can put the eggs into ice molds, it'll be easy to use. Don't forget to label indicating how much sugar or salt was used to each egg.
To defrost just leave in the fridge.

Durability: 12 months.
