Hard-boiled eggs are best stored on the middle shelf of the refrigerator in anair-tight container.

Peeled eggs risk being exposed to bacteria and air, so it’s important to seal the container tightly.

Additionally, the shell helps the eggs retain their moisture.

Whole hard-boiled eggs should not be frozen as the whites can become rubbery and inedible when defrosted.

Likewise, avoid freezing just the boiled whites of an egg.
