Duck eggs

We get them regularly from DS. I use them for baking as I find them a bit too eggy!

I tried some a few years ago. While they looked great, I found I just couldnt get on with them and that they were much too rich for my little tum.

I had one once,too strong for me,never again.

I saw her cooking and eating the duck egg too (soft poached, Scribbles) and, although it looked lovely, I've always found them rather strong.
DH likes them, though.

I ate a cake made with peahen's eggs once - that was very rich.

I buy them from the farm shop we like them the white is not as heavy as hens eggs.

I love a duck egg omelette.
However, you do need to make sure duck eggs are properly cooked - no soft boiled yolks or you may end up with a nasty bout of salmonella poisoning. (Been there, done that. It wasn't pleasant).

I looooove them on toast. They also make amazing bread and baked goods.

I always think they taste a bit of iron, if that makes sense? I do prefer hens eggs, but duck eggs are okay for cooking, they are nice in a quiche or Spanish omelette.

We had ducks at one time and their whites are better than those of hens for meringue.
For other purposes they're more "meaty" than hen's.

They are much stronger tasting than a hen's egg.
They make great cakes.

My local farm sells them at the road side - honesty box provided. They have large yolks. I use them like hen eggs . Scrambling , frying , poaching , baking. Try them , done supermarkets sell them .

They’re lovely. I don’t know if supermarkets sell them, we get them from a market.

Oh yes we have these. They are lovely and are always free-range;ducks won't lay unless they can run around outside. You can buy them in Waitrose and some branches of Tesco.
