Preserving Eggs

From the Denbighshire Free Press, 27th April 1918. 

EGG PRESERVING.

The Food Controller has issued an Authorisation under the Food Hoarding Order 1917, permitting any person to acquire eggs for the purpose of preserving them for use in his own household, but any person desiring to preserve eggs must first notify the Food Control Committee of his district as to the number which he intends to acquire for this purpose.  The Food Control Committee have power, if they think it necessary, to fix the maximum number of eggs which may be purchased for this purpose by any person.  Eggs are likely to be very dear during the next winter, and house-holders would be well advised to preserve them now.

[Eggs were preserved at that time by storing them whole (in the shell)  in a solution of isinglass.]
