    Keeping egg wash...

    Im also inclined to agree with Finca as well. Especially in the case of fish and eggs together. Now in my operation I use liquid eggs which have been pasteurized and had citric acid added to belay the dangers of raw eggs. That is a different story. Heres something interesting I've...
