EGGS.
From a Portuguese magazine issued in the year of 1950.
Here's how to deal with your eggs more profeggsionally. Eggveryday.
Get it?
Translation
«If your wish is to achieve a perfect egg a la coq, place it in cold water and begin heating it up. Remove it once it starts boiling. Done.
Whip your egg whites when making scrambling eggs. They'll grow in volume.
When you have to mix an egg yolk into a boiling liquid, dissolve it first in a little bit of water, milk or even cream to prevent it from coagulating.
To make your omelettes and scrambled eggs fluffiier and taller, add in a spoon of milk per egg.
Both white and brown shelled eggs have the same nutritional value [I'd never thought about it, but it's interesting to know!]
You recognise how fresh your eggs are by dropping them in a saline solution (125g of salt for 1L of water). A very fresh egg will sink to the bottom, an egg with more than 2 days stays in the middle, an egg with more than 4 peaks into the surface, and an egg with more than 15 is completely afloat.
If the shell of a boiled egg dries immediately as you take it from the water, that means it's a very fresh egg.
If you add lemon juice to the water the eggs are boiling in, that will prevent the yolk from turning greenish if you end up leaving them for longer than is necessary.
If you don't digest eggs so easily (in an omelette, scrambled, fried, etc.), squeeze some lemon juice over them to make their digestion easier.»
