Despite a "best by" or "packed on" date -- or if you have a couple extra eggs out of their carton in the fridge and don't remember when they got there -- this sink or float test is a good baseline ...
To safely freeze eggs, remove fresh, clean raw eggs from their shells, place in tightly sealed containers and date them. Egg yolks can take on a thick, gel-like texture when frozen.

In cooking, coddled eggs are eggs that have been cracked into a ramekin or another small container, placed in a water bath or bain-marie and gently or lightly cooked just below boiling temperature. They can be partially cooked, mostly cooked, or hardly cooked at all (as in the eggs used to make Caesar salad dressing, which is only slightly ...
Stirring the water vigorously to create a vortex may also reduce dispersion. [4] The age of the eggs affects the cooking process. The white of a freshly laid egg is less likely to disperse. With an egg that is less fresh, the white is more likely to disperse, so acidulating the water will assist in preventing excessive egg white dispersal.
If the egg sinks to the bottom it’s very fresh and should be good to use. If the egg stands up on its end or even floats slightly, it’s a little past peak freshness, but should still be edible.
Whole eggs should not be frozen in the shells. You'll first want to crack the eggs into a bowl and beat until well blended. Then pour the beaten eggs into a freezer-safe container and seal.
Particles finer than 0.1 μm (10 −7 m) in water remain continuously in motion due to electrostatic charge (often negative) which causes them to repel each other. [citation needed] Once their electrostatic charge is neutralized by the use of a coagulant chemical, the finer particles start to collide and agglomerate (collect together) under the influence of Van der Waals forces.
