First, use fine sand paper to get rid of any clumps of dirt. Next, get a damp paper towel and lightly scrub any dirt spots. Finally, dry the eggs before placing them in an egg carton. If the egg is covered with gunk they may have to be washed. Use warm water to avoid forcing any of the germs inside the egg. When you are done washing the egg, use a paper towel to cover the egg in vegetable oil. This helps to mimic the protective oils on the egg.
