Eggs - how to buy good eggs?
So I have been finding more and more often that the eggs we are purchasing here in B.C. have a horrible smell. When you cook with them, the pan will have this awful egg smell that I find completely offensive. Similarly, the utensils used to cook eggs with will retain the smell even after washing unless you remember to scrub them like super crazy. Occasionally, I have had the experience on both cruise ships and workplaces to grab a mug that has come through the dishwasher that also has the same smell.
My question is, how do you buy eggs that don't have this smell? I am almost at the point now where I can't eat eggs because the smell of preparing them grosses me out too much. Are the eggs I am buying not fresh? Is it only certain brands that smell like this? What about organic eggs, would these have the same smell?
The eggs I am using right now were purchased on sale at Safeway a couple of weeks back for something like $2/box. They are nothing special. Just basic store-brand eggs.
