Summary/Closure (2 min):
It is possible to freeze eggs. You may think about just how you will use them after you have frozen them. Will it be worth it to take the time to do so?
Assessment/Evaluation (5 min):
Before the students leave they have a half sheet of questions they have to answer. It is not graded, simply for my information. I want to know if they students grasped what was taught that day. 1. What do you do to freeze whole eggs? 2. What do you add to egg yolks to prevent them from getting lumpy? 3. Is salt or sugar added to egg whites to be able to freeze them? 4. What can you freeze and use as a garnish or topping later? 5. Why dont you freeze hard-cooked whole eggs?
