Will an egg soften if left in vinegar over night?

Yes, an egg will soften if left in vinegar overnight. This is because the acetic acid in the vinegar will dissolve the calcium carbonate in the eggshell, causing the shell to become thinner and more flexible. The egg white will also absorb some of the vinegar, which will help to break down the proteins in the white and make it more tender.

To soften an egg in vinegar, simply place the egg in a bowl or jar and cover it with white vinegar. Let the egg sit in the vinegar for at least 12 hours, or overnight. After 12 hours, the eggshell will be soft enough to be easily peeled off. The egg white will also be more tender and flavorful.

Softened eggs can be used in a variety of dishes, such as salads, sandwiches, and deviled eggs. They can also be pickled or preserved in vinegar.
