    This document summarizes an experiment on preserving eggs through salting. The student soaked two eggs in a salt solution for two weeks. After two weeks, there was no foul smell coming from the eggs. When the eggs were boiled, peeled and sliced open, there was also no foul smell or deterioration of the egg whites, although the egg yolks had turned a stronger shade of yellow. Salting helps preserve food by preventing the growth of microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, which cannot survive in highly salty substances.
