My oldest son, Kimbo, is an unashamed gourmet. He likes the best of everything, and never misses an opportunity to try new delights. He discovered these Goose eggs at his local Farmer's Market, and couldn't resist.
When I was a student, I would occasionally turn up at my parents home with a friend in tow. My mother would always fry up a few eggs (it was easy and quick). She would ask 'Four eggs or three?". My friends would reply predictably "Oh, just the three thank you!". Pity she didn't have goose eggs; she could have done just one each.
Eggs are the perfect comfort food. Sunday morning wouldn't be Sunday morning without coffee, newspapers and fluffy scrambled eggs...heaven!
ReplyDeleteI have a faint recollection of goose eggs. My dad loved them. You could use that thing for a frisbee.
ReplyDeleteHello:
ReplyDeleteWe have eaten turkey eggs, equally as large, but have never tried the egg of a goose! But, they do seem a very good way of providing a plateful of food within a very short time.
Your varied and interesting blog is most appealing and we are now Followers.
That is one mother-of-a(n) egg!
ReplyDeleteHi H. I too have houses in Brighton, although I live in S W France. Welcome!
ReplyDeleteI've never had one, but remember you talking about it last year. Interesting to hear and see the cuisine around the world.
ReplyDeletenow you have tempted me! I have a excess of goose eggs at the mo!
ReplyDeleteMake sure they're fresh John!
ReplyDeleteHi Cro, i ahve never had a goose egg but have had duck eggs and they are much stronger in flavour,wonder if the goose eggs are? make a fabulous cake wouldn't they imagine the size!
ReplyDeleteI bought my first goose eggs this season in Cornwall - delicious. Geese lay a few eggs this time of year which they ignore, and these are the seasonal treats. the ones they eventually sit on produce the golden geese. A very short season.
ReplyDeleteI'd like mine sunny-side up.
