Eggs. They’re an everyday ingredient and a versatile wonder food that we use for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and desserts.
But while they’re a very staple ingredient, there are also some pretty special gourmet egg recipes that can be created using their different varieties.
In the market, we have access to quail, duck and even ostrich and emu eggs when they’re in-season. Here are some interesting and inspiring hints, tips and recipes for cooking with them, on those special occasions.
