Equipment
glass or bowl
Ingredients
1
egg
1-2
cups
vinegar
Instructions
Gently place the egg in a glass or a small bowl.
Fill with vinegar so the egg is fully submerged.
Leave the egg in the vinegar for 2-3 days.
Then, gently remove the egg from the glass (draining the vinegar).
Gently rinse off the egg with water, which may peel back its very soft shell.
The egg will now be bouncy; you can also squish the egg in your hand like Jello.
Notes
Keep in mind that if you bounce the egg with much force or squeeze hard, you will burst the soft exterior and there is still a raw egg inside.
