It's not always easy to tell if an egg is past its best. A quick way to test an egg's freshness is to place it in a glass of cold water: if it sinks, it's fresh; if it rises, it's stale. A scotch egg is a British pub snack consisting of a boiled egg encased in ground meat (typically pork sausage), coated with bread crumbs, and fried until the exterior is crispy and the meat is cooked through. Some scotch eggs have runny yolks, while others are hard-boiled.
