I am learning something new every day! Very little, if anything, is the same as in the States.
Eggs....You do not have to refrigerate them, and they stay fresh for 3 weeks! All eggs have what is called the cuticle or bloom. This is the natural coating or covering on the eggshell that seals the eggshell pores. The bloom helps to prevent bacteria from getting inside the shell and reduces moisture loss from the egg. In the States the eggs are washed and sanitized removing all the natural bloom. Therefore, having to be refrigerated. Who knew? When you think of our ancestors they certainly did not have refrigeration and somehow lived through it! So, here are my eggs sitting our on top of my microwave! Gotta love it! Between the delicious natural eggs, the abundance of fresh fruit everywhere and my fresh fruit smoothies every morning I must be getting healthy!
Recipe for morning Smoothie:
1/2 Papaya
1 individual sized container of plain yogurt
1 Banana
(any other fruit you might want to add)
Optional - 1 scoop Zeal (I drink Zeal every morning. It is loaded with vitamins and minerals)
Orange juice to just the top of the fruit and yogurt you have in the blender
Puree away!
Pura Vida!
