Hard boiled egg yoke

10 replies

Sprogonthetyne · 05/08/2022 15:01

Is there anything I can do with them? I boiled 12 eggs to put in the fridge for the million daily snack requests I'm getting from the kids. They love the white but always leave the yoke, so I've started cutting them in half and taking it out before giving it to them.

Anything I can make with lots of boiled yokes? So far I've just been eating them, but 5 yokes in that's losing it's appeal.

Mush them with a fork, add mayo and some chilli powder and pop them on toast. The smashed yolk is the best bit of a boiled egg 😀

I agree there the best bit. No idea how I've raised two savages who won't eat them

I'd eat them mashed with Mayo and paprika...straight from the tub Blush but if you are fancy you could shove it between two slices of bread !

Whan i was kid i wouldn't touch yolks too. Now my fave part. Your savages will change😁

You can either use them as above or you can crumble them for birds outside. Also, if you cook just whites, you can keep yolks for recipes and stuff like hair mask. Always leave few for them to keep having it on plate

Mine both only eat the yolk so we could do some sort of exchange?!

Thanks for the suggestions, yesterday's went in a sandwich, with grated cheese and mayo, but I think baking is probably the answer going forward. The biscuits looked easy enough and will keep the kids busy a while rolling and cutting.

Bubblebubblebah - I try every now and then but DS has autism, so I usually count any food that isn't prawn cocktail crisps as a win and tread carefully with pushing new foods

If you separate them before cooking you can make custard and ice cream from the yolks. Though not sure how you then cook the whites for snacks!

Perhaps they could go into fairy cake tins or cake-pop moulds and be baked. Proba have to grease the containers well first, I have found that whites can stick horribly when baked (I probably over-did them- the shame!)

Open container into pot with hot water and lid on. Like the poaching tips just no yolk
