The provided reference describes how to tell if an egg is raw or hard-boiled, not the freshness of a boiled egg. Therefore, the question is rephrased to: How can you tell if an egg is raw or hard-boiled?
You can tell if an egg is raw or hard-boiled by spinning it.
Here's how:
- Spin the egg: Place the egg on a flat surface and spin it like a top.
- Observe the spin: Pay attention to how easily and how long the egg spins.
Egg Type | Spinning Behavior |
---|---|
Raw Egg | Stops quickly after only one or two spins. |
Boiled Egg | Spins freely and for a longer duration. |
A raw egg stops quickly because the liquid inside disrupts the spinning motion. A hard-boiled egg spins more easily and for longer because its contents are solid.
