Cuban content creator Ana de Cuba (@anadecuba_) has shared a home tip on her social media that is winning over cooking enthusiasts: how to detect damaged eggs before cooking them.
In her video, the Cuban woman demonstrates a simple yet very effective method. First, she thoroughly washes the eggs with tap water to remove any dirt or bacteria from the shell. Then, she places them in a container with clean water. As she explains, this step helps to determine which eggs are fresh and which ones should be discarded.
“If the egg sinks, it's good, but if it floats, it's no longer good,” comments Ana as she conducts the test.
The trick is based on a simple physical principle: old eggs accumulate air inside, which makes them less dense and causes them to float in water.
The post has received hundreds of comments from followers expressing their gratitude for the advice, especially in times when every egg counts in the Cuban kitchen, marked by scarcity and high food prices.
With her approachable and practical style, Ana from Cuba continues to gain popularity by sharing traditional recipes and useful tips for everyday life.
