OMG eggses!
We went to a farm in Maine on Saturday. It was a delightful day all around, and I did a LOT of catching up on sleep on the drive. I also learned about myself that I believe I could, if necessary, deliver a lobster to its steamy doom without much emotional drama. I didn't have to do that directly on Saturday, but I was cooking other parts of the meal in very close proximity.
Of best interest, though - EGGS!
Chickens of several types, thus eggs from medium brown through tan and white to pale blue and medium green!!! Beautiful eggs!
And even more excitement - DUCK EGGS!
I have no real clue what to do with duck eggs, other than marvel at the sheer size of them. I cracked one into the pan, and just stared at its huge orangey-yellow yolk. Then fried it up and ate it. It tasted like eggs. I hear they make baked goods particularly fluffy, but I don't really know that I have things finely calibrated enough to tell the difference. I like food, but my cooking methods are not careful enough that subtle differences in ingredients will necessarily rise to the surface.
Any suggestions on what to do with the remaining 4 duck + 24 chicken eggs?
