Can I use the contents of eggshells I’ve emptied for decorating?

You can use the contents of emptied eggshells in a recipe which includes mixed yolks and whites and calls for thorough cooking. Use the contents immediately or freeze them, labeling the storage container with the date and number of eggs it contains. You can keep mixed whole eggs frozen for a year at 0° F or lower. Most baked dishes, such as casseroles, custards, quiches, cakes or breads are good uses for eggs emptied from their shells.
