- Two easy egg preservation methods that don't require any refrigeration: freeze drying and liming (aka waterglassing). When your chickens give you too many eggs, be smart and put some aside for a winter's day.

Egg Bread Recipe (makes 2 delicious loaves)
1/2 oz active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110 - 115 F)
1.5 cups warm milk (110 -115 F)
3 large eggs
1/4 cup softened butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp. salt
7.5 cups all purpose flour
Egg wash for brushing loaves: 1 egg yolk + 2 tbsp. water
Sesame seeds and/or sea salt
Dissolve yeast in warm water (5 min). Add milk, butter, eggs, salt, sugar and half the flour. Beat on medium until blended, then add more flour until a rough dough forms.
Knead on a floured surface for 8 minutes until dough is smooth (seriously, 8 minutes). Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover to proof for about 1.5 hours in a warm location.
Punch down dough and cut into 6 sections on a floured surface. Roll each section, then braid 3 sections together into a loaf, twice. Cover loaves and let rise for about an hour. Preheat oven to 375.
Brush loaves with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds and sea salt. Bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.
To give credit where credit is due, I found this recipe on Taste of Home (Homemade Egg Bread) and I've been making it successfully for several years. If you like brioche, this is the closest thing to it I've found - but much faster!
#LoveOffGrid
We're John and Greta and we've been living off grid in eastern Washington since 2020. We're just a couple Gen X-ers, minding our business, getting back to basics, and enjoying the comforts that make life worth living.
Our farm is in a high desert region, meaning water is scarce. In winter, temps can dip below -30F and it snows a lot! Despite the challenges, we're happy here growing our food, creating our power from solar and wind, chopping firewood, and baking from scratch. We live simply and work with what we have.
Our videos are practical, sometimes steering into the philosophical, but always created to help others who are interested in off grid living. Whether your exploring an off grid life for your future or just curious about this lifestyle, you're welcome here. Thanks for watching!

If you have chickens, do you preserve their eggs? How do YOU do it? Thanks for watching!

Enjoying all the videos. I hope you remember me when you have over a million viewers 😂
Thank you! You're taking us international! :-)
