How does the egg pasteurization process work?
Our egg pasteurization process is a patented, computer-monitored process that precisely controls the time and temperature of the eggs’ immersion in massive water-filled vats. The one hour continuous bath carefully kills any bacteria and viruses that may have been passed to the egg from a contaminated hen, all the while preventing the egg from cooking or changing consistency. After pasteurization the eggs are coated with a food-grade wax to prevent contaminants from entering the eggs’ pores and then are stamped with a red Circle P, a guarantee of pasteurization.
