bdutton Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Fresh brown eggs. I have three chickens and can't eat them as fast as they lay. 1

I think she sells them for $5 a dozen (free range, organic, blah blah). People just gobble them up. I can’t get past the unusual shape and color of her eggs. Some are brown, some are speckled, some are whitish tan color. And there are some that are spherical like ping pong balls, and others that are oblong and weird shaped. Stuff creeps me out. No thanks. Well, we know where the problem is. ?May I recommend systemic desensitization. If you come to a tailgate, I will bring egg salad, made with Weber's mustard. You love Weber's mustard, right? What could be so bad? ?

WotAGuy Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 2 hours ago, WhoTom said: My wife raises chickens. The shell color has no effect on flavor or nutrition. Certain breeds lay brown eggs, others lay white eggs, and some lay eggs that are blue/green. Flavor and nutrition can be affected by the hen's diet. Eggs that come from hens who only get commercial feed (like the ones that produce cheap store-bought eggs) tend to have lighter yolks with less flavor and nutrition. Hens that can free-range and forage for a more balanced diet produce eggs with deeper-yellow yolks that have more flavor and nutrients. Right, your wife raises chickens. Is this some some kind of.......yolk?

OPINION: Fried eggs are gross. I can't stand them at all. DISCLAIMER: I have had a fried egg on a burger once. At Roast, in Detroit. Basically they take all the steak trimmings, and make burgers out of those. They offer a fried egg on top. It was really, really amazing. But a fried egg on its own? Hard, HARD pass.

bdutton Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 So many great options. Over easy is my go to. Scrambled with fresh chive and cilantro over easy on top rice fried with some onions, peppers and spicy sausage with the red hot sauce dribbled over top Over easy on Avocado toast Poached (but that's pretty boring) Over easy on on a hamburger 2 minutes ago, Johnny Hammersticks said: Weird but serious question. How do you clean/disinfect them after they come out? Shells are a natural barrier. No washing of the eggs. I was told that when hens lay eggs there is some king of mucus that dries and seals the shell and is best not to wash it off. If its really bad like covered in ***** I'll wash it. Usually they are clean like you see in the store. 1

RaoulDuke79 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 I'm a white egg guy. My parents raise chickens and the yolks are definitely stronger in the brown eggs. Another thing I've learned is that you cant make hard boiled eggs from fresh chicken eggs because you can't peel the shell properly. 1

Spam (pork parts/potted meat))fried in eggs and rice with fish oil base. It sounds gross but was pretty darn good. Tough to find on the east coast... Edited May 17, 2019 by Misterbluesky 1

Another thing I've learned is that you cant make hard boiled eggs from fresh chicken eggs because you can't peel the shell properly. Really. How long do you boil? Solid 12 minutes in a rolling boil? Then immediately take out and cool in the refrigerator. Yeah, fresher is a little harder... But usually there is a void at tip, peels right off. Right away peeled, even easier under cold running water.
