Types of Egg Cooking
To begin with, you should decide which egg dishes you are interested in according to the method of their preparation. There are dishes of fried and boiled eggs, or eggs in the oven or in a slow cooker. Cooking raw eggs has an obvious plus: in this form, quail eggs are the most useful. Salad recipes also often use these eggs, because of their size, they look very interesting in a salad. But, of course, much more often we cook chicken egg dishes. Some dishes according to the recipe should be yellow in color, have a certain consistency, so you can choose dishes from whites or egg yolks.

How to Store Eggs for a Long Time
Chicken eggs should be kept in the refrigerator in compartments specially designed for this purpose. But to extend the term, it is better to turn them over with the sharp end down. Then they can lie down for up to 3 weeks preserving most of the consumer qualities and properties. If the refrigerator is unavailable for some reason, then rub the egg shell with sunflower oil or fat melted from the fat. After applying the greasy protection, the eggs are wrapped in paper, placed in a ventilated container (for example, a basket) and hidden in the coolest possible place. At the same time, eggs should be isolated from strongly smelling products so that the porous shell does not absorb odors.

I suggest the option of cookies when you do not want to mess with the oven. Baking in the oven is very good, but it is not always possible.
