Proper storage is essential for maintaining quality. Eggs keep for weeks if held at 36°F(2°C) but lose quality quickly if held at room temperature. In fact, they can lose a full grade in one day at warm bakeshop temperatures. There’s no point in paying for Grade AA eggs if they are Grade B by the time you use them. Store eggs away from other foods that might pass on undesirable flavors or odors.
