How hot does it have to be to fry a egg?
To become firm an egg needs a temperature of 158 degrees Fahrenhight.
How do you tell if eggs are fertile?
I guess there are two answers to this question: one hi-tech answer and one low-tech answer.
The low-tech answer: A male is fertile when he can impregnate a female.
The high-tech answer: Conduct a semen analysis; combine findings for sperm count, motility, morphology, volume, sugar levels, pH, and so forth, and compare with normal levels. This is commonly done when a couple cannot conceive.
To answer your question in another way, human males become fertile by the process of puberty. There is no exact calendar date for when it starts and finishes, but the end product of puberty is normally a sexually mature, fertile person. On average, puberty sets in between 13-16 years of age, and can take anywhere from a few months to a few years to complete. I think it's usually done by the time you're 17 y.o., but for some it could be done as early as 10 y.o.
How long do hard boiled eggs stay fresh in the refrigerator if they haven't been shelled?

The egg white is approximately two thirds of the total egg’s weight out of its shell with 90% of that weight coming from water. The remaining weight of the egg white comes from protein, trace minerals, fatty material, vitamins, glucose and maybe even sodium. Egg white contains approximately 40 different proteins. Below is a list of proteins found in egg whites by percentage along with their natural functions.
- Ovalbumin 64% Nourishment; blocks digestive enzymes
- Ovotransferrin12% Binds iron
- Ovomucoid 11% blocks digestive enzymes
Do you remember Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address? It was delivered in 1863, 87 years after the 1776 US Declaration of Independence. It began, "Fourscore and seven years ago ..." A 'score' is just another way of saying 20. Twenty of anything. It's similar to 'dozen' being just another way of saying 12. Fourscore is four times 20, or 80. Fourscore and seven is 80 plus seven, or 87. Lincoln could have begun his speech by saying, "Eighty seven years ago." But, "Fourscore and seven years ago" was a much more memorable way of expressing the same time frame. Way back then, eloquent oratory was a highly valued skill. Unlike today, with 'Yo, dude' and its ilk.

Put the unbroken egg on a flat surface and carefully spin it, if the egg spins with a wobble then it is liquid inside and raw, if the egg is hard boilled it will spin on it's end as it solid inside, if the egg is soft boiled it will will try to spin on it's end but not quite make it all the way. Try it and amaze your mates.

Why is it recommended that a copper bowl be used when whipping egg whites?
There's no reason why not. Just make sure everything--bowl, beaters, and egg whites--are at room temperature. Some cooks place the bowl of egg whites over the pilot light of a gas stove briefly (a few minutes) to take off the chill from the refrigerator. Be careful when using this method. You don't want to cook the eggs, just bring them to room temperature before beating.
How hot does a stove have to be to make scrambled eggs?
I would set the temperature between medium and high.
If you like your eggs softer and fluffy, the lower the temperature the better. Medium High temperature makes the eggs firm (as some people prefer).
How many calories in 1 cup egg whites?
If you cook it on a non-stick surface that requires no oil or fat there are:
- approx 16-17 calories in one large egg white.
If you use butter or oil to fry the egg white it will add extra calories. The more butter or oil you use, the more calories you will add. For the calorie content of butter, see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
How many calories in half a cup of scrambled eggs?
That depends whether you added any milk or butter (as well as on how many whole eggs you used). For the calories in scrambled eggs, both with and without butter or milk, please see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related questions. Alternatively, please feel free to ask the question again and include more detail.
Is a raw egg more dense than a boiled egg?
The density of an egg that I boiled was 1.02 * density of tap water.
The density of a raw egg was 1.06 * the density of tap water.
The mass of the egg did not change so the volume increased slightly.
With a raw egg and a boiled egg covering in water, if you add salt and mix slowly you find that the boiled egg will float first and if you continue to add salt you get both to float.
Interestingly, recipes for making a brine solution for food preparation frequently tell you to put a raw egg in water and add enough salt in solution to make the egg float. This assures enough salt for a good brine solution.

Gently slide omelet onto a plate and serve immediately.
How long can egg whites out of the shell remain at room temp?
Not giving a scientific answer, but just from experience ... No. Here in Spain the eggs are not refrigerated in the stores -- just set out in boxes at room temp. until they are sold. We haven't had any problems with them.
It was explained to me that fresh eggs do not require refrigeration. However, once refrigerated something in the proteins change and then they require refrigeration. The old time markets in the US didn't keep them cold until they had spoiling problems in the falla nd spring when the eggs would get cold from being outside then warm with the day. I can't verify if this is an old wives tale or not, but I buy farm fresh eggs and don't refrigerate them. They are delicious and I've never had a problem.
