Farm Update: OUR FIRST DUCK EGG

in #food6 years ago

So that's not just a big chicken egg. Finally after 6 months we got a duck egg and it was huge and honestly out of our smaller flock of birds. I've never even seen a duck egg in person so I can't say it's bigger than average.

Those aren't spots, that's mud as ducks are worse than pigs with mud.

The huge yolk made me instantly understand why people love these for baking purposes. Many cookie and muffin recipes call for an extra egg yolk which wouldn't be necessary with a duck egg.

And we're getting eggs from all sorts of places we weren't before which is exciting after so many months of literally nothing but quail eggs.

That yolk was HUGE. I have to know how it tasted.

Similar to a chicken egg. a really yolky egg

Duck eggs are much better for making fresh pasta than chicken eggs. Lots of chefs will go out of their way to get them.

Hey that's very good to know
